Painted in 1935, the year of Loiseau's death, Moret-sur-Loing belongs to the very end of that long career. The view looks across the Loing towards the town, the church of Notre-Dame rising at the centre with the dark mass of a tower beside it, the roofs of the houses gathered below and returned in the water, trees screening the near bank on the right. Greens and blues are woven through the foliage and river whilst warmer reds sit among the roofs and the pale stone of the church catches the light. The choice of subject in Loiseau's final year is telling. Moret-sur-Loing, on the edge of the Fontainebleau forest, was Alfred Sisley's town: he settled there in his last years and painted its church, bridge and riverbanks until his death in 1899. Loiseau came to the motif nearly forty years later at the close of his own life. The river carries the whole scene back into itself, the buildings and foliage returned in broken reflections across the water, while the foreground is closed by a band of riverside growth worked in rapid strokes of green, blue and violet. The sky is built up in layered touches of blue and thick white cloud. The handling throughout is characteristic of Loiseau's late technique: painting en plein air, directly from nature, he developed a method of small cross-hatched strokes, sometimes described as en treillis, through which he recorded the vibration of light across a scene, and it is visible here in the woven texture of the foliage and the shifting surface of the river.
