3. In the early 1860s, four young painters—Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and Frédéric Bazille began to develop a lighter and brighter manner of painting. When they submitted paintings to the Salon, their work were usually rejected! The Salon jury encouraged and rewarded traditional paintings. To them, the work of the young painters, with its loose brushwork and daring colors, seemed shocking, unfinished and insulting.Claude MonetPierre-Auguste RenoirAlfred SisleyFrédéric Bazille

4. FokinaLida.75@mail.ru In 1874 thirty progressive artists participated in their first joint exhibition. The critical response was mixed. Monet and Cézanne received the harshest attacks. Critic and humorist Louis Leroy wrote a scathing review in which, making wordplay with the title of Claude Monet's Impression, Sunrise he gave the artists the name by which they became known. Impression, Sunrise Claude Monet

5. FokinaLida.75@mail.ru The term impressionists quickly gained favour with the public. It was also accepted by the artists themselves. They exhibited together eight times between 1874 and 1886. The public, at first hated the paintings, then gradually came to believe the Impressionists had captured a fresh and original vision The Impressionists' style, with its loose, spontaneous brushstrokes, became synonymous with modern life.

15. FokinaLida.75@mail.ru Monet, Sisley, Morisot, and Pissarro may be considered the "purest" Impressionists, in their consistent pursuit of an art of spontaneity, sunlight, and colour. Degas rejected much of this, as he believed in the primacy of drawing over colour and belittled the practice of painting outdoors. Renoir turned away from Impressionism for a time during the 1880s, and never entirely regained his commitment to its ideas. Édouard Manet, although regarded by the Impressionists as their leader, never abandoned his liberal use of black as a colour, and never participated in the Impressionist exhibitions.

42. FokinaLida.75@mail.ru The Impressionists created a model for freedom and subjectivity that promoted artistic freedom that which many artists of the past longed for. Their example empowered later artists that took it much further than they did. Impressionism became the birth of modern art. All the major art movements that would follow, including Post-Impressionism, Fauvism, Cubism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art owe their beginnings to Impressionism

43. FokinaLida.75@mail.ru “Impressionism is at the root of all modern art, because it was the first movement that managed to free itself from preconceived ideas, and because it changed not only the way life was depicted but the way life was seen” Franceso Salvi
