Impressionism

Sunday Afternoon on the Island of the Grand-Jatte

Actually this is the first time to learn about impressionism.
This painting I searched from the internet. I know that before because there's a similar photo so that they're famous. This painting is about a sunny Sunday.People are sitting, playing or eating around the lake. The main character is a lady who is holding up an umbrella and a guy laying on the grass. Strong color is easy to reflect the season。 Maybe that's the point of impressionism.
"Impressionism was a 19th-century art movement that began as a loose association of Paris-based artists whose independent exhibitions brought them to prominence in the 1870s and 1880s. The name of the movement is derived from the title of a Claude Monet work, Impression, Sunrise (Impression, soleil levant), which provoked the critic Louis Leroy to coin the term in a satiric review published in Le Charivari."
