What is Impressionism (Phaidon Art and Ideas) about?

The author "brings together the most recent research to provide a fascinating, comprehensive study of Impressionism. He makes accessible the philosophical, political and social background to the movement, from Baudelaire's conception of the painter of modern life to the effect of tourism on Monet's choice of motif, the burgeoning art market, and the impact of nineteenth-century notions about gender, race and criminality on the work of Degas. As well as the acknowledged masters, our attention is drawn to important, lesser known Impressionists, including Berthe Morisot and Mary Cassatt, who thrived in a milieu in which only the most talented women could succeed. Rubin also examines the work of Cézanne and his relationship to the group. Finally, the book explores the legacy of Impressionism and its enduring appeal."--Back cover.
