What is Impressionism?

Impressionism is a 19th-century art movement that originated in France and spread throughout Europe. It's characterized by open compositions, freely applied colors replacing lines and contours in forming subjects of paintings.

Impressionists painted outdoors (en plein air), capturing transitory effects of natural light with short "broken" strokes and thick paint, emphasizing color over contour and accuracy.

What themes are usually found in Impressionist paintings?

Impressionists embraced everyday life themes, depicting landscapes, still lifes, bourgeois leisure, and recreation without heavy symbolism.

What is the difference between Impressionism and Post-Impressionism?

Post-Impressionism originated as a reaction against Impressionism. It rejected Impressionism's immediate rendering of naturalistic light, emphasizing symbolic content over immediate surroundings.

What is the most expensive Impressionist painting ever sold?

The most sought-after Impressionist artists include Cézanne, Renoir, Monet, Manet, Pissarro, and Degas. Cézanne's "Card Players" holds the top spot, sold for $340 million. Paintings by Renoir, Monet, and Manet also fetch hundreds of millions.

Where are Impressionist paintings sold?

Impressionist paintings, highly prized on today's art market, are found in museums and sold at major auction houses under the supervision of specialists. Due to the loose technique, fakes can be common; a professional appraisal can determine value and authenticity.
