The Impressionists did not just revolutionize painting, they changed the view of mankind on the world around them.
To their contemporaries, they seemed to be innovators-madmen who dared to declare that they would be able to capture the unique divine moment of being, write light, embody the movement of air on the canvas. The changeable, shimmering, quivering, rain-washed, sunlit world of Impressionism made Europe, and then the whole world, take a fresh look at the present and past of art. “New knowledge is being built, armed with all the experience of an active and boundlessly curious artist. The science of art now learns from those who exemplify the living practice of art.” Through the efforts of the Impressionists, Europeans rediscovered Velazquez, Poussin, Greek archaism, medieval sculpture, Japanese engraving and Chinese painting. European culture said the final “no” to inertia and moved along the modern channel: wide, open to new trends, experiments and innovation.
