- 1860s - 1900s (originated in France before spreading through Europe and America)
- Stresses atmosphere & sunlight on subject matter
- Ordinary people being leisurely
- Mostly outdoor landscapes (“en plein air”) on small canvases that could be done quickly, before sun shifted
- Artists not interested in painting history, mythology
- The goal was to capture a spontaneous “impression” - not perfection
- Quick, short, loose brushstrokes (dabs of colour meant to be viewed from a distance - pointillism)
- Critics found this art to be “unfinished” and “amateur”
- Considered “low-class art” because it was painted outside and did not have fine details
- Genre paintings; people doing ordinary things
- Impressionists: Interested in colour and developed a fascination with the effect of light & spontaneous rendering.
- Wanted to express an immediate impression, not a detailed analysis (making light and colour their subject matter)
- “Momentary glimpse of nature” is achieved based on what they saw - bright, glaring and high-keyed with coloured light penetrating shadows
- ^^Artists^^
- %%Degas%%
- Master of line and drawing (carefully considered the positioning of people and objects)
- Doesn’t use the blurring technique
- Earliest of impressionism so it’s the closest to realism
- Known for drawing bodies in motion and different perspectives
- Carriage at the Races, The Ballet Class, The Belleli Family, Glass of Absinthe
- The Ballet Class series is when he used softness to express action or material
- Planned asymmetric balance
- %%Manet%%
- “Not as they are, but as they appear to be”
- Painted The Railway in a very flat manner and mundane (not realism’s detail with shadows and depth) with unblended paint
- The Waitress, Luncheon on the Grass, Impression Sunrise, Boulevard des Capucines
- %%Monet%%
- Perfect example for broken colour (eyes naturally blend the colours)
- Made 30 paintings of hay bales in different seasons and times of day, “The sun sets so fast, I cannot follow it”
- Water-lilies series with dry brush technique, no horizon line
- Rouen Cathedral
- He wanted to analyze changes in the sun’s movement or interruptions of clouds or haze
- %%Renoir%%
- Interested in painting women and nude figures
- Blurs edges to blend subjects with their surroundings (In the Meadow)
- Used blue paint instead of black in some paintings
- Luncheon of the Boating Party, The Swing
