"Impressionism changed the way we see art" is the gist of this art-appreciation installment introducing the movement's history, notable players and works, and lasting influence. From Manet's painting of everyday Parisian life to Monet's focus on natural light to Seurat and Signac's pointillism (an evolution of Impressionism), the volume is inclusive and comprehensive. Excellent reproductions, engaging sidebars, and a running timeline are included.
