Impressionism
• Impressionism was an art movement that emerged in the second half of the 19th
• century among a group of Paris-based artists. The duration of the impressionist
• movement itself was quite short, less than 20 years from 1872 to the mid-1880s.
But
• it had a tremendous impact and influence on the painting styles that followed, such
as
• neo-impressionism, post-impressionism, fauvism, and cubism—and even the
artistic
• styles and movements of today.
• 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,
• sometimes in mid-motion, at other times awkwardly positioned—just as it would be
• in real life.
