Impressionism
is a movement that was born in France during the second half of the 19th century and begins with Monet’s “Impression, Sunrise.” Impressionism revolutionized painting, making it more innovative since, before this movement, painting was conceived of as classical and full of details. Impressionism broke with that scheme through free strokes.
