Learn how the invention of photography and paint tubes contributed to the start of this infamous art movement, where the name Impressionism came from, initial reactions from the public and much more in this introduction to Impressionism. Journey from mid-1800s Paris to the end of the movement and the Post Impressionists that followed, meeting key figures such as Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Berthe Morisot and many more along the way.
Art Intros introduces young readers to each major art movement with an exciting combination of illustrations and reproductions of artwork alongside fun facts and stories. This is the perfect collection of books for creative children, budding artists and all curious young minds to start exploring the world of art.
