<div>Alfred Sisley’s Cavalier en lisière de forêt (Horseman on the Edge of the Forest), from 1875, is a luminous painting depicting a tranquil road near Marly-le-Roi, where Sisley found creative renewal after moving from Paris’s Batignolles quarter. This work, included in the 2021 catalogue raisonné of the work of Alfred Sisley prepared by Francois Daulte with Galerie Brame & Lorenceau and the Comité Alfred Sisley as no.196, showcases his unrivaled commitment to plein-air painting, even compared to Impressionist peers like Monet and Pissarro. Likely executed entirely outdoors, it captures the immediacy of a summer morning with feathery brushstrokes of muted greens, ochres, and blues, rendering a path winding into a forest, a lone horseman, and two figures—one with a parasol. </div><br><br><div> </div><br><br><div>Sisley’s move to Marly-le-Roi, driven by a love for greenery and the need to support his young family amid financial strain post-Franco-Prussian War, shaped this work. Painted after the 1874 Impressionist exhibition’s disappointing sales, it reflects resilience. The diffused light and geometric composition—path and trees anchoring a vast sky—evoke the region’s gentle haze. Camille Pissarro, a close colleague, hailed Sisley as “a great and beautiful artist, in my opinion he is a master equal to the greatest” (Pissarro, quoted in C. Lloyd, ‘Alfred Sisley and the Purity of Vision’, pp. 5-33, M. Stevens (ed.), Alfred Sisley, exh. cat., New Haven and London, 1992, p. 8).

シルヴィ・ブラメ&フランソワ・ロレンソー『アルフレッド・シスレー-絵画・パステルカタログ』パリ、2021年、196号、104頁。
価格1,900,000
1875年に制作されたアルフレッド・シスレーの《森の端の騎手》は、パリのバティニョール地区から移り住んだシスレーが、創作意欲を新たにしたマルリー=ル=ロワ近郊の静かな道を描いた光り輝く作品である。この作品は、フランソワ・ドルトがギャルリー・ブラーム&ロレンソーとアルフレッド・シスレー委員会とともに作成した2021年のアルフレッド・シスレー作品カタログ・レゾネに196号として収録されており、モネやピサロといった印象派の同輩たちと比較しても、彼の比類なきプレインエア絵画へのこだわりを示すものである。すべて屋外で描かれたと思われるこの作品は、夏の朝の臨場感を淡い緑、黄土色、青の羽毛のような筆致でとらえ、森に入り込む小道、一頭の馬、日傘を差した二人の人物を描いている。





シスレーがマルリー=ル=ロワに移り住んだのは、緑を愛する気持ちと、普仏戦争後の経済的困窮の中で幼い家族を養う必要性に駆られてのことであり、それがこの作品を形作った。1874年の印象派展の売れ行きが芳しくなかった後に描かれたこの作品には、回復力が反映されている。拡散した光と幾何学的な構図(広大な空を支える小道と木々)は、この地方の穏やかな靄を思わせる。親しい同僚であったカミーユ・ピサロは、シスレーを「偉大で美しい画家であり、私の意見では、彼は偉大な画家に匹敵する巨匠である」(ピサロ、C. Lloyd, 'Alfred Sisley and the Purity of Vision', pp.5-33, M. Stevens (ed.), Alfred Sisley, exh. cat., New Haven and London, 1992, p.8より引用)と称賛している。2021年のブレイムとロレンソーのカタログには、シスレーの1,013点の油彩画のうち360点が美術館に所蔵されていると記されており、シスレーの遺産が確認されている。





この簡潔かつ刺激的な作品は、コレクターに、自然の美と印象派の革新を融合させたシスレーの卓越した技を垣間見せる貴重な作品である。
