The Impressionists (The Impressionists)

Venturing from the garrets and cares of 19th century Paris to the galleries where their priceless works are displayed today, THE IMPRESSIONISTS tells the story of the first truly modern artistic movement, focusing on its most important practitioners: Renoir, Monet, Degas, Pissarro and Morisor. Their determination to remain true to their convictions - and the price they paid as a result - is vividly captured in their own words, taken from letters and diaries, while the world's foremost authorities offer fascinating insights into their lives and work.
