A type
of art that was dominant in the nineteenth century was
Impressionism. Originating in France, Impressionism
spread to America, but took on a different form. The
2009 Impressionism calendars pictured here feature French
and American paintings. Some of the best Impressionist
painters of the time were Claude Monet, Renoir, Edgar Degas,
Hassam, and Sargent. The art itself was unique to the
industry. An art critic once called Monet's paintings
useless. It was good from afar, but not good up close.
These 2009 Impressionism calendars beg to differ, as they offer detailed
and incredible paintings of dancers, scenery, and beaches. |
