Description
During the 1870s and 1880s, a group of French artists, including Pissarro, Monet, and Renoir, adopted a style of painting and subjects that challenged the art prompted by the Academie Francaise where "official" assumptions about the meaning of painting prevailed. This compact, well-priced survey of the movement features 60 reproductions of some of the most renowned works, and a highly readable introductory text.
