  1. 1. Impressionism

    A concise, authoritative survey of the nineteenth-century movement that transformed painting by privileging direct observation, fleeting effects of light and color, and loose, broken brushwork; it places the artists and their work in the social and cultural context of modernizing Paris, examines key exhibitions and critical debates, and profiles major figures (including Monet, Renoir, Degas, Pissarro, Morisot and Cassatt) while explaining the movement’s technical innovations and lasting influence on subsequent modern art.
