FAQ About Claude Monet
What is Impressionism?
Impressionism is an art movement that developed in the late 19th century. It emphasizes the depiction of light and its changing qualities, often focusing on ordinary subject matter and the incorporation of movement. Impressionist paintings are characterized by loose brushwork and open composition, aiming to capture a moment in time rather than a detailed subject. Monet, along with artists like Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Edgar Degas, were pioneers of this movement.
