Editor reviews

Whether or not they know the names, most kids have the ability to recognize the images of Claude Monet’s water lilies or Paul Cezanne’s still life paintings. However, their knowledge of impressionism usually ends there. Thankfully, iMinds JNR has put together another easy-to-follow and entertaining audiobook to help educate young listeners. Performed with an energetic delivery, this audiobook is a captivating and concise look at the impressionism art movement, its original reception, and how appreciation for it has changed over the years.

Summary

Learn about the Impressionism art movement with iMindsJNR audio learning series for younger minds. Impressionism was a style of art that began in late-nineteenth-century Paris. It was concerned with depicting movement and capturing light in paintings. Impressionist artists included: Claude Monet, Hilaire Edgar Degas, Eugene-Louis Boudin, Camille Pissarro, Paul Cezanne, Mary Stevenson Cassatt and Pierre-Auguste Renoir.

Impressionist paintings are worth millions today, but back in the 1800s when impressionism was born, people did not like these paintings.. They were too different to what people were used to.
