Label TextPoetic and serene, this canvas was likely painted in Henri Eugène Le Sidaner’s own garden at Étaples in Normandy, France. The soft, atmospheric quality of the painting is typical of the artist’s style and reflects his interest in the work of James Abbott McNeill Whistler and the Impressionists.Published ReferencesToledo Museum of Art, European Paintings, Toledo, 1976, p. 96, pl. 273.
