On The Particulars Of Impressionist Art

Impressionism started as a rebellious urge to embrace a different idea
against a rigid art establishment, and was originally begun by a handful of
artists in 1863 to resist the common ridicule prescribed against their
particular works of artistic nature, eventually earning praise after
recognition replaced that ridicule that was widely the burden on the
shoulders of these dedicated individuals. It was French Impressionism as a
movement period that established other modern periods of artwork, and it is
Impressionism that has helped to usher in the acceptance of breaking with an
established status quo, the rebellion becoming the established idea.

The four key artists widely regarded as being responsible for this shift in
artistic vision had been friends and colleagues long before the beginning of
this artistic movement, and it is only appropriate to list their names here;
Frederic Bazille, Alfred Sisley, Auguste Renoir, and Claude Monet. These
four knew each other from shared classes in art, mainly painting classes
where they learned conventional painting techniques, and learned to distrust
the established convention for art in France at the time. Where the artist
worked within a studio, drew inspiration from history and Greek mythology,
and working with dominant and dark colors primarily.

The four students found this atmosphere quite boring at the time, then one
day took their easels to the forest nearby, and began painting in the
open-air setting. Illustrating with their brush strokes the impression of
the moment, and showing the effects of light on a subject, a technique that
would late become vital to the Impressionist art movement. Later artists
such as Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin were considered to fall into the
categories of Post Impressionism and Neo Impressionism, and another striking
feature of the Impressionist vision is the combined use of light and strong
colors.
