The Impressionists - Hardcover

120 Illustrations in full colour, plus 56 black and white. The Impressionsit school - which includes painters now accorded the highest adulation and acclaim - was originally greeted with derision and hostility. Their work, in the years 1860 to 1880, was met with such contemptuous critiques as "Painting will be finished under them..it will be the end of the country, the end of France." This volume includes superb reproductions of Monet's - Women in the Garden, Pissarro's - Young Girl with a Stick, Renoir's - The Greath Bathers, Van Gogh's - Sunflowers, Degas' - Dancers Backstage and Cezanne's - Onions and Bottle to mention but a few.
