Impressionist Art

Impressionism is a 19th-century art movement characterized by its focus on capturing light and natural forms in an atmospheric and spontaneous manner. It was developed by a group of artists in France, who aimed to capture the fleeting moments and sensations of everyday life. Impressionist paintings typically feature loose brushwork, vibrant colors, and broken color techniques, and are known for their emphasis on capturing the momentary and transient effects of light. Some of the most famous Impressionist painters include Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Edgar Degas, and Mary Cassatt.
