Impressionism
by Tom pooley
Describe and discuss the artists (and their works) associated with your chosen art movement, looking particularly at which artists were involved in the movement, how the movement developed, where and when the movement occurred (the historical context) and what effects you feel the movement had on art and society.
Impressionism is probably the most beloved and famous of all the artistic styles to
date. ...
In the1880s the fame and reputation of Impressionism grew rapidly and
many younger artists were influenced by this form of painting. ... Vincent van Gogh was instantly influenced by the
Impressionists’ style when he came to Paris in 1886 and the intense colour and
vigorous brushwork of his later work was developed from Impressionism. ...
Impressionism was very much about changing art’s focus from the past to the
present. ...
Impressionism developed in a Paris in which change and revision were everywhere. ... One of the legacies of Impressionism is to leave the
viewer with a profound sense of life. ...
When you look at the history of Impressionism, it makes you realise how tastes
change, and an art that we, today, can easily enjoy and appreciate could seem crude
and controversial and undisciplined to its first viewers.
