What is "Impressionism"?
Impressionism was an art movement that began in France in the late 19th century. Main figures of the movement included Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Impressionism is known for its focus on showing the effects of light and color in everyday scenes. Artists used quick and soft brushstrokes and bright, unmixed colors to create a sense of liveliness and movement, often painting outdoor scenes to show natural light. The goal was to show how a scene felt in that moment rather than detailed or realistic representations. Impressionism changed the way people viewed art by emphasizing how light and color affect the senses.
