In the life of Alfred Sisley
The whole life1870–1871
The war ruins his father: family support ends
The outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War had a calamitous effect on William Sisley's trading business, and the remittances Sisley had lived on came to an abrupt end; his relatives also shunned him because of Eugénie's humble and unmarried status. His finances remained precarious for the rest of his life, dependent on patrons, friends and the sale of his work.
November 1871
Birth and early death of his son Jacques
In November 1871 the Sisleys' second son, Jacques, was born; he died in infancy.
1873
Co-founder of the Joint-Stock Society of Painters
In 1873 Sisley became one of the founders of the Joint-Stock Society of Painters, which many of the Impressionists joined.
1874
Trip to England with his patron Jean-Baptiste Faure
In 1874, after the First Impressionist Exhibition, Sisley travelled to London with his patron, the opera singer Jean-Baptiste Faure. It was the first of his three visits to Britain.
