“Snow Effect at Louveciennes” is an oil on canvas artwork created in 1876 by the artist Alfred Sisley. This landscape painting, measuring 50 x 61 cm, is an exquisite example of the Impressionism art movement and is currently housed in the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes (MNBA) in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The artwork depicts a serene and wintry scene at Louveciennes, showcasing a countryside blanketed in snow. The muted colors and delicate brushstrokes convey the quiet and stillness of the winter landscape. Snow-covered trees and rooftops create a harmonious blend of natural and architectural elements. The texture of the snow and the soft, diffused light reflect Sisley’s mastery in capturing atmospheric conditions. The composition leads the viewer’s eye through the tranquil scenery, inviting contemplation and an appreciation of the beauty of the natural world.
