The Meadow is an 1875 painting by Alfred Sisley, now in section 88 (French Impressionist landscapes) in the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC.

[3] It is described in the catalogue of count Armand Doria's collection as: The meadow, where herbs grow, is enamelled in flowers, daisies, poppies, blueberries.

To the right, a wooden fence, behind which a few clumps of trees raise their blonde foliage.

And further away, countryside as far as the horizon, whose crops climb the flanks of the hills, under a blue sky, edged with white clouds.It was sold from Doria's collection at the Georges Petit gallery on 4–5 May 1899 as catalogue number 224.

It was sold from Strauss' collection as catalogue number 60 on 3 May 1902 to Joubert, possibly on behalf of the Georges Petit gallery.
