Impressionism
An art movement that emerged in the second half of the 19th century among a group of Paris-based artists. The
name impressionism was coined from the title of a work by French painter Claude Monet, Impression, soleil levant (in
English, Impression, Sunrise). The term precisely captured what this group of artists sought to represent in their works: the
viewer’s momentary “impression” of an image. It was not intended to be clear or precise, but more like a fleeting fragment of
reality caught on canvas.
There were several areas in which impressionist artists moved away from the established practices of art at that
time. These involved their use of color, their choice of subject matter and setting, and their technique for capturing light and
conveying movement.

➢ Color and Light


The impressionists painted with freely brushed colors that conveyed more of a visual effect than a detailed
rendering of the subject. They used short “broken” strokes that were intentionally made visible to the viewer. They also often
placed pure unmixed colors side by side, rather than blended smoothly or shaded.

➢ Everyday subjects
They ventured into capturing scenes of life around them, household objects, landscapes and seascapes, houses,
cafes, and buildings.

➢ Painting Outdoors
The impressionists found that they could best capture the ever-changing effects of light on color by painting
outdoors in natural light.

➢ Open Composition
They experimented with unusual visual angles, sizes of objects that appeared out of proportion, off-center
placement, and empty spaces on the canvass.
(1840 – 1926) was one of the founders of the impressionist movement. He is considered the
most influential figure in the movement. Monet is best known for his landscape paintings, particularly
those depicting his beloved flower gardens and lily ponds at his home in Giverny.

1832- 1883) was one of the first 19th- century artists to depict modern-life subjects. He was a
key figure in the transition from realism to impressionism, with a number of his works considered as marking the
birth of modern art.

(1841 – 1919) One of the central figures of the impressionist movement. His early
works were snapshot of real life, full of sparkling color and light. By the mid-1880s, Renoir broke away
from the impressionist movement to apply a more disciplined, formal technique to portrait of actual people
and figure paintings.

Post-Impressionism

The European artists who were at the forefront of this movement continued using the basic qualities of the
impressionists before them—the vivid colors, heavy brush strokes, and true-to-life subjects. However, they expanded
and experimented with these in bold new ways, like using a geometric approach, fragmenting objects and distorting
people’s faces and body parts, and applying colors that were not necessarily realistic or natural.

Two of the foremost post- impressionists were Paul Cezanne and Vincent Van Gogh.
Paul Cezanne (1839 – 1906) was a French artist and post-impressionist painter. His work exemplified the transition
from late 19th-century impressionism to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century—paving the way
for the next revolutionary art movement known as expressionism.
Paul Cezanne Hortense Fiquet in a Stripe Skirt, 1878
Harlequin, 1888- 1890 Boy in a Red Vest, 1890

(1853-1890) A post-impressionist painter from The Netherlands. His works were remarkable
for their strong, heavy brush strokes, intense emotions, and colors that appeared to almost pulsate with energy.

Vincent Van Gogh Starry Night, 1889
