Impressionismus

Stilrichtung in der Kunstgeschichte

AI overview

Impressionism was a 19th-century art movement that revolutionized painting by focusing on capturing light in its constantly changing qualities and emphasizing visible brushstrokes, ordinary subjects, and movement rather than precise detail. The movement, which emerged through independent exhibitions by Paris-based artists during the 1870s and 1880s, fundamentally changed how artists approached depicting the world around them.

Impressionismus (von lateinisch impressio ‚Eindruck‘; über das französische impressionnisme) ist eine Stilrichtung in der Kunstgeschichte, die durch die stimmungsvolle Darstellung von flüchtigen Momentaufnahmen einer Szenerie gekennzeichnet ist. Sie entstand aus einer Bewegung innerhalb der Malerei in Frankreich in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Der Begriff Impressionismus wurde auch auf bestimmte Stilrichtungen in der Musik, in der Literatur, im Film und in der Fotografie übertragen.
