One of the paintings in the Lyon collection donated to the Louvre in 1961 is this Impressionist painting by Alfred Sisley (1839-1899). The title "Saint-Cloud" made me curious because I could recognize the church. We live in Boulogne-Billancourt, the town which is on the other side of the Seine from where we always see the steeple of the church. I decided to take a walk along the river to try to find Sisley's viewpoint.
The pastoral setting is now lost because of the many houseboats anchored at the banks and the wide bridge and motorway A 13 (Paris-Rouen) are criss crossing the river.
