Tracing the origins and history of impressionism in a concise, introductory volume, this book highlights the major differences between the new techniques and aesthetic principles of the impressionists and the academic art they abhorred, and explores the original intellectual focus of the movement.
An ideal companion for museum-goers, as well as those who are entirely new to the subject, Impressionism weaves an engaging narrative around a selection of striking illustrations, discussing the movement’s greatest artists, their works and where to find them.
