Welcome to the paintings of Claude Monet
When
they fist showed their work in 1874, the artists who
would become known as "Impressionists" called themselves
the "Société Anonyme des Artistes, Peintres, Sculpteurs, Graveurs"
(loosely, Painters, Sculptors and Printmakers, Inc.). But they would
become known as the "Impressionists" after a disgruntled critic
dismissed their work as mere "impressions," taking a cue
from this Monet painting’s title.
