The world's leading authority on impressionist art has curated the masterpieces from their collection into this essential reference on the key artists, themes, and dates that define the art movement.
This authoritative volume offers an introduction to impressionism through one hundred iconic works from the exceptional Musée d'Orsay collection. When the impressionists first showed their work, it shook the art world. The movement went on to transform Western art and remains the most popular period to this day.
In this beautifully produced volume, the fundamental principles at the heart of the movement are unfurled through ten key dates and ten central themes favored by the Impressionists, including intimacy, landscapes, interiors, and the interplay of light. Concise biographies of renowned artists-Manet, Monet, Morisot, Cassatt, Gonzalès, Degas, Renoir, Sisley, Caillebotte, Pissarro, Bazille, Cézanne, and Bracquemond-and highlights of their work accompanied by in-depth commentary from art historians complete this essential reference.
