Description
Celebrating the Impressionist artists, including Monet, Renoir, and Pissarro, whose paintings are inextricably linked to the birth of modern art. Today, our passion for these artists remains, and their works are among the most beloved pieces in art history. By choosing to create extraordinary images of modernity that shocked the bourgeois elite, the Impressionists challenged the academic ideals of French salons, rejected the past, and embraced color to convey a sense of joy in life. Their revolutionary use of color, free brushstrokes, and modern themes, painted outdoors, gave rise to one of the most important and influential artistic movements of the 19th century. This beautifully illustrated guidebook, featuring many of the most famous and significant works by key figures of the group, also includes a collection of lesser-known but equally important pieces that showcase the diversity of this exceptional movement.
Unique titles and a wide range of authors are the hallmark of Flame Tree Publishing.
