Signed and dated (lover right): Sisley, 76
Sisley produced his most celebrated canvases in and around Marly-le-Roi in 1876. This view, painted at neighboring Bougival – a town along the Seine, just west of Paris – probably dates from early autumn, since the leaves have just begun to thin and turn yellow.
