The Impressionist movement
began in France in the 1860s.
It was probably the most important
and successful art movement ever.

Until the 1880s, the only way
that artists could be
successful was to have their
paintings shown at Le Salon.
This was France’s yearly
official art show.

Judges awarded prizes to the
winners .
Exhibiting paintings at the Salon
was the only way for artists to
become known and get work.

Work that was considered to be “acceptable”
at Le Salon had to look realistic, like this
Ingres, 1800s, Madame d’Haussonville

Or historical like this…………. Ingres, Napoleon on His Throne, 1806

Or Biblical, like this…..
The Abduction of Rebecca, Eugene Delacriox, 1846

However, this traditional way of
looking at the world was changing,
mainly because of the invention of
the camera

Many artists began to take photographs and this affected
the way they painted:
They were able to capture movement and spontaneity.

They experimented with less formal poses
and cropping

Advances in technology also made
it possible for manufacturers to
mass produce paint and put it in
tubes.

The artists began to paint outside.
They became interested in using pure
color and painting the effects of
changing light on color.
![Page 13: Impressionism - Denton Independent School District“Impressionism” was intended as an insult, but the name stuck and eventually the artists embraced it . Monet often painted the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042414/5f2f173307c3c361017db8e9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
But when these artists tried to
exhibit their work at Le Salon,
they were rejected because the
critics said that the paintings
looked sloppy and unfinished.

And so they got together and
put on their own exhibitions.
The leader of the Impressionists
was Claude Monet. The term
Impressionist came from his
painting Impression: Sunrise

The Impressionist movement
was revolutionary for the art
world because it paved the way
for abstraction.
Artists were no longer restricted
to painting in a realistic manner.
