About Welsh Coast in the fog

“Welsh Coast in the Fog” is an oil painting on canvas crafted by Alfred Sisley in 1887, embodying the Impressionist movement. The artwork, with dimensions of 65.5 by 92 cm, represents a serene landscape and is currently housed in the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rouen, Rouen, France.

The artwork depicts a tranquil coastal scene enveloped in mist, characteristic of Sisley’s impressionistic style. The colors are soft and muted, blending seamlessly to convey the ephemeral nature of mist and light. The calm sea and rolling coastal hills lend a soothing, almost melancholic atmosphere. The artist’s technique captures the transient moment with delicate brushstrokes, creating a harmonious balance between land and sea under the enveloping fog. This painting reflects the fleeting beauty of nature, a hallmark of Impressionism.
