In the 19th century, the Impressionists broke the rules of academic painting with their ‘new’ small, fleeting brushstrokes and desire to capture scenes from ordinary life. Their work was far from ordinary, and the Impressionists had influence worldwide. Critics panned their work for its unfinished appearance, and supporters praised its modernity. More than water lilies and bridges! Join us as we explore Impressionist collections from galleries in Europe, Australia, Asia, and North America to see what all the fuss was about.
