{"product_id":"impressionism","title":"Impressionism - The Movement That Transformed Western Art","description":"A comprehensive, accessible, and richly illustrated  guide to impressionism—the perennially popular artistic movement that  led to the radical renewal of Western art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Monet, Renoir, Degas, Rodin, Cezanne,  Van Gogh, and the other Impressionist artists burst onto the art scene  in the second half of the nineteenth century, creating shock waves with  their rebellious rejection of the academy’s strict rules dictating  subject matter, style, and even color. Their art, labeled impressionism,  coincided with the Industrial Revolution, when the world was suddenly  jettisoned into modernity. The young artists who gave rise to the  movement confronted public disdain and oppression in Europe, but were  applauded overseas for their radically contemporary aesthetic. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This complete and accessible guide renews and  refreshes conventional views on impressionism by placing this seminal  moment in art in its historical context. Emblematic masterpieces are  examined with a focus on each detail, allowing a deeper understanding  and appreciation of the artworks. Biographies of all the major artists  of the movement provide insight about their life and significant works,  and period photographs illustrate this incredibly rich and exciting time  in art history. Organized thematically, the guide includes chapters on  photography, fashion, female impressionists, exhibitions, galleries and  dealers, writers, the movement’s influence on later artists, and  recurrent impressionist themes including leisure activities, the garden,  the city, and industry. Replete with illustrations and numerous  firsthand accounts and quotations, this book recounts a story of  emancipation.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50951689208096,"sku":"9782080203205","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9782080203205.jpg?v=1763644529","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/es\/products\/impressionism","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
