ART FOR ALL: IMPRESSIONISTS (TASCHEN GB) (HB)

Impressionism is possibly the most popular art movement today – and probably the most controversial of the modern period. Each of the featured artists in this book broke boundaries and astounded late 19th-century society with his boldness of vision and technique. Degas, Monet, Renoir, Gauguin and van Gogh redefined what art dared to achieve, emphasizing personal expression while exploring light, colour, symbolism and perspective. This collection looks beyond the famous works and includes an extensive text on each artist's oeuvre, alongside a detailed biography and more than 400 high-quality colour illustrations.
