The artwork titled “Geese,” created circa 1897 by the artist Alfred Sisley, is a pastel piece that belongs to the Post-Impressionism art movement. This piece falls under the genre of animal painting and is currently held in a private collection.
The artwork showcases a serene scene of geese in a pastoral landscape. The composition depicts three geese positioned in the foreground, situated on a lush, green meadow. In the background, there is an array of quaint houses with red rooftops, partially obscured by tall, slender trees which reach up toward a sky depicted in soft pastels. Sisley’s masterful use of pastel medium is evident in the delicate interplay of light and color, capturing the tranquillity and rustic charm of the countryside setting.
