{"product_id":"alfred-sisley-9780300052459","title":"Alfred Sisley","description":"\u003cp\u003eMany of Alfred Sisleys wistful  lyrical landscapes radiate with beauty  originality  and technical brilliance  but his reclusive nature and the uneven quality of his output have made him the least known of the major Impressionists. In this handsome book  an international team of scholars presents a broad-ranging analysis of Sisley and his work. By focusing on sixty-five of his best paintings  the book allows us to appreciate Sisleys contribution to the forging of Impressionism in the 1860s  his mastery of style in the 1870s  his resolution of the problems of technique in the 1880s  and his exploration of the idea of serial painting in the 1890s.  The book begins with a biography of Sisley written by Christopher Lloyd. Next Caroline Durand-Ruel Godfroys discussion of Sisleys relationship with his European dealers and William Johnstons commentary on early American collections of works by Sisley shed light on contemporary attitudes toward his art. Isabelle Cahn then provides a detailed documentary chronology of Sisleys works. The catalogue that follows includes full data on sixty-five of Sisleys paintings. The works are arranged chronologically and are accompanied by introductions by Mary Anne Stevens  Christopher Lloyd  William Johnston  and Sylvie Gache-Patin that review relevant locations  stylistic developments  and critical response to Sisleys art.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45279680692277,"sku":"ByrdShop_0300052456","price":73.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780300052459.jpg?v=1780606126","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/alfred-sisley-9780300052459","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
