The painting "Landscape at Louveciennes" was painted by Alfred Sisley in 1873. For three years, Sisley lived in the countryside of this small town in north-central France. It was there, inspired by his contemporaries Monet and Renoir, that he painted this and other landscapes in the same artistic vein.
The work depicts a field with a low horizon, where the sky stands out for its chromatic richness, including grays, blues, pinks, and violets. In the path at a distance, two human figures are distinguished, who appear to be locals. The composition is textbook impressionism: lines converging in the center and minimal paint spots to show a landscape that, when viewed from afar, is of maximum realism.
The painting is currently on display at the Western Art Museum in Tokyo, Japan.
