As one writer noted, "The trees form the most agreeable pattern… one can walk on lawns fresh and gentle to the feel, veritable carpets of greenery." In 1876 Sisley repeatedly depicted the stretch of river around Bougival and neighboring Port-Marly, especially the spring and autumn floods. The present view, with the water coursing placidly along, probably dates from early fall, since the leaves have just begun to thin and turn yellow." - See more at: http://bit.ly/1MlFXAP<br>#Sisley #British #impressionism #Seine #Bougival #OTD #OnThisDay<br>из www.thePO.ST
