Impressionist Painting

An excellent overview of the Impressionist movement, from its early influences of English landscapes by J.M.W. Turner and John Constable to the major Impressionist artists living and working in Paris. This volume includes illustrations, portraits and information about the significant painters from this period including Édouard Manet, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro and August Renoir. Also included are lesser-known Impressionist painters such as Alfred Sisley, J.F. Raffaelli, Emile Claus and Childe Hassam. Written by English artist Wynford Dewhurst, this book was the first significant account of the Impressionist movement to be published in English. The author dedicated the publication to Claude Monet, who inspired his own art.
