1884
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
A Valley in Burgundy (Une Vallée en Bourgogne) is a 1884 by Alphonse Legros, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows a quiet valley with rolling hills and a small river winding through it. Trees line the banks, and a few buildings sit in the distance near a bridge. The scene looks peaceful, with soft lines and no sharp details. The artist used fine, delicate strokes to create depth, almost like a sketch. This style fits the Realism movement, which focused on everyday scenes without idealizing them. Next, check out Alphonse Legros, the artist who made this print.
Alphonse Legros (French pronunciation: ; 8 May 1837 – 8 December 1911) was a French, later British, painter, etcher, sculptor, and medallist.
