hello, thank you, yes, it is Sicilienne by Fauré

I suspect Paul would have had your guts for garters had he heard you call his work "impressionistic".

[urtheanswer]

@nicksum29 the FACES were impressionistic...yes, Paul worked hard to separate himself from the early impressionists he was influenced by. In his salon showing of 1880 he was referred to as a 'second tier' impressionist with work too closely resembling Pissarro. This enraged Paul and he began to pursue a different and unique style. I think he succeeded! Thanks for your comment:)
