This work may record the remnants of the major snowstorm that other Impressionist artists painted during the especially harsh winter of 1874–1875. The apparent simplicity of Alfred Sisley’s tranquil scene disguises complex techniques, such as the parallel vertical lines and alternating patches of peaches and blues, by which he created a balanced and harmonious composition.
Most of Sisley’s paintings are relatively small in size. This made it easy for him to transport the canvas and paint outdoors, but the canvas was also ideally scaled for the domestic interiors of potential collectors.

NOTES:
[1] Ronald Pickvance was the first scholar to identify no. 63 as the Nelson-Atkins painting. See Ronald Pickvance, "Sisley’s House at Louveciennes," Burlington Magazine 156, no. 1333 (April 2014): 237–38, 238n6. The procès-verbaux from the
Hôtel Drouot sale indicate that the work was purchased by Durand-Ruel for 130 francs; see Merete Bodelsen, "Early Impressionist Sales 1874–94 in the light of some unpublished ‘procès-verbaux’," Burlington Magazine 110, no. 783 (June 1968): 335. Durand-Ruel confirmed this purchase, as per their annotated sales catalogue, but cannot find the Nelson-Atkins painting in their stock books until 1899, when they reaquired the picture from John Burke. See email from Paul-Louis Durand-Ruel and Flavie Durand-Ruel, Durand-Ruel et Cie., Paris, to Meghan Gray, NAMA, February 16, 2016, and email from Flavie Durand-Ruel to Brigid M. Boyle, NAMA, April 6, 2022, NAMA curatorial files.[2] For the purchase date, see emails from Paul-Louis Durand-Ruel and Flavie Durand-Ruel, Durand-Ruel et Cie., Paris, to Nicole Myers, NAMA, January 11, 2016, and to Meghan Gray, NAMA, February 16, 2016, NAMA curatorial files. The precise date of sale to Joseph Durand-Ruel is unknown, but the painting was in his possession by 1901. See email from Flavie Durand-Ruel to Brigid M. Boyle, NAMA, April 19, 2022, NAMA curatorial files.
[3] After Joseph Durand-Ruel’s death on December 30, 1928, his art collection was retained by his estate and gradually distributed to heirs over the course of two decades. See emails from Flavie Durand-Ruel, Durand-Ruel et Cie., Paris, to Brigid M. Boyle, NAMA, April 20, 2022, NAMA curatorial files.
[4] For the sale date of September 16, 1964, see email from Paul-Louis Durand-Ruel and Flavie Durand-Ruel, Durand-Ruel et Cie., Paris, to Nicole Myers, NAMA, January 11, 2016, NAMA curatorial files.
[5] Sam Salz (1894–1981) sold Rue de la Princesse, Evening to Clifford and Barbara Michel sometime prior to January 12, 1966, when the couple loaned the painting to Knoedler Gallery’s exhibition Impressionist Treasures from Private Collections in New York (January 12–29, 1966). Per Betsy Michel (née Shirley, b. 1942), daughter-in-law of Clifford and Barbara Michel, her in-laws purchased their entire art collection from Salz. Verbal communication from Betsy Michel to Brigid M. Boyle, NAMA, March 11, 2022; see notes in NAMA curatorial files.
[6] After Clifford Michel passed away on March 8, 1976, the painting remained in his wife’s possession until her own death on November 29, 1978.
[7] See memorandum by Clifford Lloyd "Mickey" Michel (1939–2004) entitled "Estate of Barbara R. Michel: Paintings and Scupture to be Sold," January 15, 1979, NAMA curatorial files. The memo bears a handwritten note dated February 2, 1979, which states: "Agreement reached to sell the 14 items (12 paintings and drawings and 2 sculptures) as a single lot." See also emails from Dr. Martin Morad, University of South Carolina, to Brigid M. Boyle, NAMA, March 14, 28, and 29, 2022, NAMA curatorial files, confirming William Beadleston’s purchase of Rue de la Princesse, Evening from the Michel estate.
