The Impressionists: Painting and Revolution

In this four-part documentary, the author, Waldemar Januszczak, introduces us to the particularly interesting movement in the history of art - The Impressionism.

He covers the movement itself, and the artists - the Impressionists; both their professional and private life curiosities.

I highly recommend this series to all art lovers, since it is out of the covers.

You cannot find these facts in a classic art book, and it is especially good because author leads you to the places of interest - where artists lived, or locations from which they painted a particular painting. Author also covers the "why and how" this painting techniques where possible only then and not in some previous time in history, he tells us about the materials and conditions which made it possible.

I cannot believe nobody reviewed this beautiful documentary yet, so I am going to do it in more detail, and write a review on each episode, because it certainly deserves it!
