Alfred Sisley, The Small Meadows in Spring, 1880-1
Sisley is perhaps one of the most overlooked artists of the Impressionist group. He was, however, there at the start of ‘Impressionism’ with Pissarro and Monet, and was a pioneer of the plein-air method and Impressionist aesthetic. His painting, 'Small Meadows' is held in the Tate Collection in London. In this artwork, he presents a notably restrained image: The trees remain bare and there’s not a hint of cherry blossom… But in the foreground, he depicts his young daughter as a symbol of rebirth, like
Botticelli’s 'Primavera', and as an image of new life.
