More about this artwork

Henri Le Sidaner's "Matin Gris, Moret" is a captivating display of gentle impressionistic strokes, transporting viewers to a serene morning in the charming town of Moret-sur-Loing. The painting, created in 1918, showcases the artist's masterful use of light and shadow to evoke an atmosphere of tranquil solitude.The artwork depicts a picturesque scene beside the river, with a stony path leading towards a bridge that arches gracefully over the water. The morning light filters through the leaves, casting a soft glow and creating subtle reflections on the river's surface. The soft, muted palette of grays, blues, and touches of warm yellows and greens suggests the early hours of the day, enhancing the painting's quiet ambience.Historic buildings, characterized by their traditional European architecture, line the pathway. Their presence adds to the antiquated charm of the scene, as does the glimpse of a figure near the bridge, possibly a local enjoying the morning calm."Matin Gris, Moret" is a splendid example of Le Sidaner’s unique approach to impressionism, focusing on private and serene settings.

Henri Eugène Augustin Le Sidaner (7 August 1862 – 14 July 1939) who was a contemporary of the Post-impressionists, was an intimist painter known for his paintings of domestic interiors and quiet street scenes. His style contained elements of impressionism with the influences of Édouard Manet, Monet and of the Pointillists discernible in his work. Le Sidaner favoured a subdued use of colour, preferring nuanced greys and opals applied with uneven, dappled brushstrokes to create atmosphere and mysticism. A skilled nocturne painter, he travelled widely throughout France and Europe before settling at Gerberoy in the Picardy countryside from where he painted for over thirty years.

Le Sidaner's paintings and pastels were widely collected throughout his career. His seductive views of the gardens he created in the ruins of the medieval fortress at Gerberoy, with their recently vacated tables dappled in sunlight and overhung by roses, have cemented his reputation as a unique artist who does not fit easily into an art movement.
