  •   EImpressionism - An art movement and style of painting that started in France during the 1860s. Impressionist artists tried to paint candid glimpses of their subjects showing the effects of sunlight on things at different times of day. The leaders of this movement were: Camille Pissarro (French, 1830-1903), Edgar Degas (French, 1834-1917), Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926), and Pierre Renoir (French, 1841-1919). Some of the early work of Paul Cézanne (French, 1839-1906) fits into this style, though his later work so transcends it that it belongs to another movement known as Post-Impressionism.   Examples of Impressionist artworks are displayed on four pages: Camille Pissarro (French, 1830-1903), Edouard Manet (French, 1832-1883), Edgar Degas (French, 1834-1917), Paul Cézanne (French, 1839-1906), and Alfred Sisley (French, 1839-1899) Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926) Berthe Morisot (French, 1841-1895), Frédéric Bazille (French, 1841-1870), and Pierre Auguste Renoir (French, 1841-1919), Gustave Caillebotte (French, 1848-1894) The American Impressionists: Mary Cassatt (American, 1845-1926), Julian Alden Weir (American, 1852-1919), John Henry Twachtman (American, 1853-1902), Childe Hassam (American, 1859-1935), Frederick Carl Frieseke (American, 1874-1939), and others google_protectAndRun("ads_core.google_render_ad", google_handleError, google_render_ad); Here's a device to help students remember the issues important to most Impressionists:  E   Everyday life  L   Light  B   Brushstrokes  O   Outdoor settings  W   Weather  and atmosphere

Impressionist painting comprises the work produced between about 1867 and 1886 by a group of artists who shared a set of related approaches and techniques. The most conspicuous characteristic of Impressionism was an attempt to accurately and objectively record visual reality in terms of transient effects of light and colour.

Impressionism - Biography of Auguste RENOIR - 3 views

  • In 1855, Renoir's father, a modest tailor from Limoges established in Paris since 1845, puts his 14 years old son Auguste at work in a porcelain factory, in the "Rue du Temple" street, where the adolescent boy is initiated with painting on plates.
  • Throughout these early years, Renoir made frequent visits at lunch time to the Louvre, where he studied the art of former French masters, particularly those of the 18th century Antoine Watteau, François Boucher, and Jean Honoré Fragonard. His deep respect for these artists informed his own painting throughout his career.
  • Eight years later Renoir had enough money to enter in April 1862 the School of Fine Arts. Parallel to the courses of the School, he also attends the private Workshop of Charles Gleyre where he will become friendly with his school-fellows Alfred Sisley , Frederic Bazille and Claude Monet.

  • Auguste Renoir and Monet worked closely together during the late 1860s, painting similar scenes of popular river resorts and views of a bustling Paris. Renoir was by nature more solid than Monet, and while Monet fixed his attentions on the ever-changing patterns of nature, Renoir was particularly entranced by people and often painted friends and lovers.
