A Review Of Impressionist Prints

By Barbara Myers


Not so many people have heard about impressionism, and they do not know what it is. Impressionist prints are a form of painting that uses bright colors that can accurately depict visual reality. It started becoming popular about two centuries ago and has grown to be accepted by many people today. It mostly focuses on modernity compared to the other forms of painting.

The drawings were so revolutionary as they differed from most of the classical or fantastical scenes. This is because of the use of this technique of broken brushstrokes to depict the real life that emphasized the overall impression of a place. They were mostly thought to have an unfinished look. This kind of artistic struggled to be popular.

In the old days, many paintings that captured impressionism were rejected in exhibitions by the artwork organizations. This made the rejected painters to from their exhibition centers to display their art that was very different from the classical standards of painting. However, the public did not readily accept them thus it was a big struggle for them.

After a few years, one famous artiste decided to paint a drawing that had the impression of an unfinished painting and called it the impression. He later used the name to name a movement which he started. However, the public did not receive this movement very kindly, and some became so hostile, but in the later years, they started to embrace it as the paintings displayed some modernity.

This moved to grow as more people started appreciating the art. Then, an association was formed that helped the artists to exhibit their works. During the first exhibition, 30 artists were present, and 165 paintings were showcased. The people who attended the exhibition were approximately 3,500, but there were some of a craftsmen started to leave the exhibitions and chose to paint the classically-accepted drawings. This was a big blow to the painters that remained but they decided not to give up, so they continued to attend the shows.

Some years later, more people started to understand this form of painting thus they were becoming supportive to the painters. Impressionism thus became influential to many people who could now define their feelings through art. For this reason, many painters came to light and embraced Impressionism. They painted very nice drawings that they exhibited in many shows thus this artistry became so popular as years passed by.

At first, people were shocked to see this form of art as they were not used to see paintings that are done in such bright colors. They were used to cool colors because most of the classical painters used golden paints that were thick to tone their paintings down. To add to that, the impressionist painters used liked using colors that were bright and vivid in their drawings.

Usually, most impressionism paintings centered on modernity especially suburbs, but there are others that depicted the rural settings. Some of these artists focused on drawing the daily lives of a local villagers while others focused on landscapes such as railways as well as factories. Therefore, these paintings were a very vivid way of expressing the lives of people.
