Ages 1-5. This book contains 11 reproductions of famous works from this influential school, including Edgar Degas's Green Dancer and George Pierre Seurat's Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, in a toddler-friendly board book format for ages 1-5. Impressionism was one of the most important artistic movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Developed primarily in France, impressionism encouraged painters to capture the 'impression' of light and shadow, generally by using feathery dabs of color, rather than outlining shapes on the canvas. Famous artists associated with this school include Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, and Paul Cezanne.
