The exhibition was held from 15 April to in the former studio of the photographer at 35 Boulevard des Capucines, a fashionable address. They called themselves the Anonymous Society of Painters, Sculptors, Engravers, etc., and included artists who are now world-famous such as Renoir, Degas, Pissarro, Morisot, and Cézanne. Monet and a group of about 30 other artists, frustrated by the restrictions and politics of the official annual art salon, had decided to hold their own independent exhibition, an unusual thing to do at the time. Monet exhibited the painting he titled "Impression, Sunrise" in what we now call the First Impressionist Exhibition, in Paris. Monet uses this to draw the viewer further into the painting and give a sense of depth and perspective to the scene. Some of the horizontal lines that reflect the effects of calming soothing intersects the vertical line which rendered the impression of trust, power, and height created by the sun and reflected sunlight on the water. Diagonal line charged with power and energy. The line is the most essential tool of painting, the artist used it more wisely. Notice also that the three boats are arranged on a straight line, or on a single perspective line. You may find it easier to see in the greyscale photo of the painting. This aerial perspective on the boats is echoed in the water in the foreground, where the flecks of paint on the water shift from dark (below the boat) to lighter (orange of the sunlight) to lightest. It is amazing to see that boats get lighter in a tone which is called aerial perspective, the lighter boats appear to be further away from us the darkest ones. In the painting Impression, Sunrise it is very interesting how the artist painted boats and gave visual effect on that object. The sun is no lighter than the background clouds in Monet's work Impression, Sunrise.īesides that, Monet gave depth perspective. It appears so brilliant it seems to pulsate. The sun in this painting seems both hot and cold, light and dark. The orange of the sun seems very intense against the grey sky, converting a photo of the painting into black-and-white, and the tone of the sun is like that of the sky. In this painting still, water and port scenes like water and sky alike are treated in liquid sweeps of color which suggest that money may have responded to the whistler’s early nocturnes. Dark shapes can be seen around the signature and vertically above its right part, extending down into the area between and below the two boats. Traces of a previous painting Monet had begun on the same canvas have become visible through the later layers, which have presumably become more translucent with age. To give dimension to shapes, artists create light and shadow effects creating form. The shape is created when a line turns or starts to enclose an area. They painted outdoors to capture the appearance of the light as it flickered and faded while they worked. The Impressionists wanted to create an art that was modern by capturing the rapid pace of contemporary life and the fleeting conditions of light. This painting is very time consuming to make it with a proper detailing and according to my research on this painting, this piece of art was completed probably in a single sitting.Īn important aspect of the Impressionist painting was the appearance of quickly shifting light on the surface of forms and the representation changing atmospheric conditions. I really like the way how artist paint boats in the foreground as well as the sun and its reflection were added when the thin paint-layers beneath them were still wet. In this piece of art, it is interesting that how artist use thin rapid strokes that gives movement, tension, action, drama and gesture.Īpart from this, I feel amaze that how artist made the detailing of objects very neatly and how he uses technique behind that. Line is consider as a basic tool of the artist. I really like the way how artist made this oil painting by thin washes of rather muted colors, on top of which he is painted short strokes of pure color. It would be very interesting to know about the type of art, it’s historical position in history, what makes this art more revolutionary and concept that Claude Monet used in the composition of objects or subject. I personally love to make more deeply observation on the "Impression, Sunrise" piece of art. On first sight, I found this piece of art very attractive and unique. I chose the art which is “Impression Sunrise” that made by Claude Monet French painter, that done with oil paint on a canvas.
