Impressed

Just finished reading a book about Renoir. Impressionism is da bomb.
Renoir, Luncheon of the Boating Party, 1880-81

Monet, Bridge, 1925

Cezanne, Montagne Sainte-Victoire about the Route du Tholonet

Mary Cassatt, Woman with Baby

I love that these artists not only focused on what they knew, but what they loved. Gotta hand it to them, there was a lot of passion going on.
