Books, Manuscripts
No group of artists or period of art history has inspired as much fascination and admiration as the Impressionist school. This book tells the story of the revolutionary Impressionist painters and the dramatic times that shaped their vision. It examines the artistic trends from the early part of the 19th century to the shocking debut of Manet's 'Luncheon on the Grass,' and examines the most important individuals in the history of Impressionism, including Pissaro, Manet, Degas, Monet, Renoir, and Sisley. The expert analysis is augmented by over 350 illustrations, including the immediately recognizable images as well as rare paintings seldom seen in print.
