The Impressionists did not just revolutionize painting; they changed humanity's view of the surrounding world.
To their contemporaries, they seemed like mad innovators who dared to claim that they could capture the unique divine moment of existence, paint light, and embody the movement of air on canvas.
The changing, shimmering, trembling, rain-soaked, sunlit world of Impressionism forced Europe, and then the whole world, to look at the present and past of art in a new way.
"A new knowledge is being forged, armed with all the experience of an actively engaged and infinitely curious artist. The science of art is now learning from those who demonstrate the living practice of art with their example".
Through the efforts of the Impressionists, Europeans rediscovered Velázquez, Poussin, Greek archaic art, medieval sculpture, Japanese prints, and Chinese painting. European culture said a definitive "no" to stiffness and moved along a modern path: broad, open to new trends, experiments, and innovation.
