A century and a half ago, a group of unknown French artists made a truly revolutionary breakthrough in art. The innovation and ideas of this movement completely changed the artistic perception of the art of the 19th and 20th centuries. The Impressionists considered their main goal to be the transfer of impressions, and to do this, it was necessary to learn to seize the moment in order to capture the real world in all its variability. It was impossible to achieve such an effect inside the studio, and the artists went out “into the world” — outdoors, where they quickly sketched, trying to capture the natural light and emotional nerve of the moment. The Impressionists did not strive to reflect acute social problems, philosophy or shock value in their work, focusing only on various ways of expressing the impression of everyday life. They did not insist on the deep content of the picture, striving to “see the moment” and reflect the mood. They did not seek contrived complexity, while remaining alien to any vulgar simplification or hackneyed sentimental banality. Impressionism did not claim to be elitist, to have a particularly refined aristocracy, to have psychological depth or symbolic subtext; it looked at the world with the clear eyes of a curious child.
