started in france during the 1860s. Impressionism is a light,spontaneous manner of painting.
.The movement’s name came from
Claude Monet’s early work, Impression: A Sunrise,which was singled out for criticism in an exhibition. The hallmark of the style is the attempt to capture the subjective impression of light in a scene.
.Although the work of the Impressionist
painters appears very spontaneous,they carefully and scientifically planned their work.
