Evening: Les Andelys is a 1850 watercolor by Alfred East, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolor shows a quiet countryside scene at dusk. A winding road cuts through a grassy hillside, lined with tall trees that cast long shadows. The sky is soft and pale, with hints of purple and pink near the horizon. A few small buildings peek out from behind the trees, and the whole scene feels peaceful and still. The artist used loose, sketchy brushstrokes to capture the light and shadows, giving the painting a gentle, unfinished look. The colors are muted, with earthy greens and blues dominating the scene.

Alfred East (1844–1913) was an artist, born in Kettering.
