The Impressionist movement began in the late 19th century as a reaction against the formal styles and subjects of academic painting. Artists like Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir sought to capture the effects of light and color in everyday scenes, often painting en plein air (outdoors) to achieve a sense of immediacy. The movement gained its name from Monet's painting "Impression, Sunrise," which was exhibited in 1874 and epitomized the focus on capturing fleeting moments and impressions rather than detailed realism. This innovative approach challenged traditional artistic conventions and laid the groundwork for modern art.
