Masterpieces of Impressionism

Impressionism is undoubtedly the most famous, recognizable, and popular artistic movement in world painting. Often, without realizing it, we view the world through the eyes of impressionists — their images have left such a strong imprint on our memory.
This album with high-quality reproductions of paintings, many of which are presented with large fragments, offers a chance to immerse oneself once again in the world of outstanding masterpieces of impressionism and possibly discover previously unknown names and works. The publication includes works not only from the recognized leaders of this movement — Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro, Alfred Sisley, Edgar Degas — but also from lesser-known masters to the general public, such as Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, Gustave Caillebott, Frédéric Bazille, Armand Guillaumin, and Jean-François Raffaëlli.
The paintings are accompanied by comments with the most significant and interesting facts about the works and the circumstances of their creation. The album is preceded by an overview article highlighting the key aspects of impressionism. It also includes a chronology of famous exhibitions of impressionists, indicating the participants and venues. Brief biographies of the artists are provided.
