At Musée Marmottan Monet, located in the heart of Paris, France, you can find one of the most iconic pieces of French art - Claude Monet's "Impression, Sunrise". This painting is not only a masterpiece but also a symbol of a revolutionary movement in art history: Impressionism.
The Birth of Impressionism
In 1874, Monet's "Impression, Sunrise" was exhibited at what would become known as the "Exhibition of the Impressionists" in Paris. The painting received mixed reviews, but it was Louis Leroy's derisive use of the term "Impressionistic," inspired by this painting's title, that stuck and eventually became the name of the movement.
A Hazy Depiction of Le Havre
"Impression, Sunrise" depicts the port of Le Havre at sunrise. Monet painted it from his window overlooking the harbor, capturing the hazy scene with a muted palette and loose brushstrokes that strayed from traditional landscape painting.
