A fresh iteration of this renowned compilation of letters, critical reviews, and reminiscences penned by Impressionist artists and their contemporaries has been released. The Impressionists, comprising renowned figures such as Monet, Manet, Degas, Morisot, Pissarro, Renoir, and Sisley, are undoubtedly the most celebrated artistic school in history. Their relentless pursuit to establish a novel artistic vision stands as one of the most captivating chapters in the annals of art. Art historian Bernard Denvir skillfully brings Impressionism into sharp focus by presenting it through the eyes of the artists themselves and their contemporaries, set against the backdrop of the era.
