About this title

Synopsis

For a so-called art movement, impressionist painters were a very dissimilar group. Monet and Renoir liked people-watching and hanging out with the jet set at La Brenouilli�re. Degas got his kicks from ballet dancers, working models, and racehorses. One thing these artists all had in common, however, was a love of color: bright, big, bold dabs of it.

Impressionist Art: A Crash Course provides lots of color as well as hundreds of amusing anecdotes and little-known facts about this popular period. Readers will not only be able to tell the Manets from the Monets, but will quickly become experts on the many mini-movements within this popular style. This fun-loving guide is appealing, compact, lavishly illustrated, and conveniently organized chronologically spread by spread. For anyone who can’t tell the water lilies from the haystacks, Impressionist Art: A Crash Course is an enjoyable trip for all.

• Reader-friendly and informative text brings new dimension to familiar history

• Each 2-page spread is devoted to a particular impressionist movement, topic, or individual artist

• Compact and easy to follow timeline puts vital events of the period into context
