The Square at Argenteuil is one of Sisley’s canvases showing his close affinity with Corot – starting with his very choice of subject.

Argenteuil, it is true, often inspired the Impressionists, but their subjects were usually the pool, the flowing waters, the boats, anything that reflected movement. They were more chary of attempting village scenes.

The general tones, blond rather than grey, are those affected by the master. A very soft light, the light of the Ile-de-France, bathes the houses; there is hardly any difference between sunny patches and transparent shadow.

The spire, perhaps the most luminous part of the picture with its faint tinge of pin, rises up into the blue sky with surprising lightness. Still showing the influence of Corot, who attached the greatest importance to such precision, the treatment of the houses shows no dryness but loving care for detail.

There is not a single loud note in the very discreet graduation of tones: the shutters, pale green in the sunlight, become bluer in the shade. The spirited figures are worth noting, for Sisley seldom painted from life. They preserve the grey cameo effect, their emphasis contributing not a little to the balance of the picture. The fluid handling distains any virtuosity of touch.
