1.How did the term impressionism originated? What did it mean?

- Impressionism is a style of painting which began in France in the late 19th century. Impressionist painting
shows life-like subjects painted in a broad, rapid style, with brushstrokes that are easily seen and colours that
are often bright. The term 'impressionism' comes from a painting by Claude Monet, which he showed in an
exhibition with the name Impression, soleil levant ("Impression, Sunrise"). An art critic called Louis Leroy saw
the exhibition and wrote a review in which he said that all the paintings were just "impressions". The word
stuck.

2. What are the characteristics of an impressionism arts? Cite and briefly discribe.
- Impressionism is a 19th-century art movement characterized by relatively small, thin, yet visible brush strokes,
open composition, emphasis on accurate depiction of light in its changing qualities (often accentuating the effects
of the passage of time), ordinary subject matter, inclusion of movement as a crucial element of human perception
and experience, and unusual visual angles. Impressionism originated with a group of Paris-based artists whose
independent exhibitions brought them to prominence during the 1870s and 1880s.

4. Cite and discribe new techniques that distinguished post-impressionism.
- The European artists who were at the forefront of this movement continued using the basic
qualities of the impressionists before them- the vivid colors, heavy brush strokes, and true – to – life
subjects. However, they expanded and experimented with these in bold new ways, like using a geometric
approach, fragmenting objects and distorting people’s faces and body parts, and applying colors that
were not necessarily realistic or natural.

5. List down the different Artist's with their artwork that uses post impressionism style.

 6. Define the term impasto
- Impasto is a technique used in painting, where paint is laid on an area of the surface in very thick layers,
usually thick enough that the brush or painting-knife strokes are visible. Paint can also be mixed right on the
canvas. When dry, impasto provides texture; the paint appears to be coming out of the canvas.

7. Which of the impressionist masters - Monet, Renoir, Manet, Cèzanne, Van Gogh - has a style that strongly
appeals to you? Explain briefly.
- For me the style of Claude Monet because his style is more attractive to me, it's influence about the
environment.
