Impressionism. The Most Human Painting

The history of Impressionism, which forever influenced all subsequent art, spans just 12 years: from the first exhibition in 1874, where the famous Impression was presented, to the final, eighth exhibition in 1886. Édouard Manet and Claude Monet, Edgar Degas... and Auguste Renoir, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Paul Gauguin – whose stories begin this book – were among the first to oppose the conventions of the classical painting that had formed by that time. Vincent van Gogh and Salvador Dalí, Pablo Picasso and Kazimir Malevich, unlike their predecessors, created their own reality on the canvases. They did not try to convey to the viewer the impression – the beauty of everyday reality and to transmit what the eye sees at a specific moment. Paola Dmitrievna Volkova invites us on a journey from Impressionism to Surrealism, from impression to emotion, from the Venus de Milo to the Black Square in the next volume of the series Bridge over the Abyss .
