This book tells the story of the beloved Impressionist movement, focusing on the tumultuous period of the 1860's and 1870's and the emergence of the "New Painting" out of the Paris Salon. Lavish reproductions of masterpieces of French painting - from the monumental canvases of Bouguereau to the landscapes and peasant scenes of Millet and Courbet - set the stage for a rich visual narrative that recounts the incubation and evolution of the Impressionist movement. The range of subject matter and techniques reflects the stylistic diversity of the artists who were part of this revolution.
