When considering Impressionism, we associate it with the atmospheric landscapes, lively portraits and city scenes of Monet, Renoir, Degas and Cézanne. Utilizing a sketchy painting style, which was accomplished in situ, these artists were able to capture the moment, with their colors corresponding to the prevailing light and weather conditions. This volume, featuring around 300 illustrations, gives an overall perspective of the painting of the Impressionists.
Mooie platen, dat kan niet anders. Het voelt soms toch wat de lukraak, de volgorde en keuze van schilderijen. Dat ligt misschien aan mij, weet ik niet. Maar wel een mooi boek, 3,5 sterren.
