Impressionist landscapes are characterized by their vibrant brushwork, emphasis on light and atmosphere, and a focus on capturing fleeting moments in nature. Emerging in the late 19th century, artists like Claude Monet broke from tradition by painting en plein air (outdoors) to directly observe and render the immediate effects of natural light. Their works feature loose, visible brushstrokes and a bright, varied palette that conveys the dynamic interplay of color and shadow. Ultimately, Impressionist landscapes prioritize mood and sensory experience over precise realism, fundamentally changing the course of modern art.
