Impressionists

In 1874 the Impressionists defied the prestigious Paris Salon by setting up their own independent 'impressionist' exhibition. Monet, Degas, Renoir, Sisley, Cezanne, Pisarro, Morisot, Manet, Gaugin, Seurat and Bazille all played their part in establishing this exciting new movement, explored here in this beautifully illustrated Pitkin Guide.
