Alfred Sisley

Alfred Sisley
British
Paris 1839-1899 Moret-sur-loing
Impressionist
---
Affluent British parents life began
his teenage years a remittance man
in London a business student
several years then abandonment.

Paris Ecole des Beaux-Arts
his artistic career starts
pals with Bazill, Monet, Renoir
their careers would go far.

Then the Franco Prussian war
his fathers business no more
Sisley now impoverished
his artistic work dismissed.
