Instinctively, we stand with the to Pissarro from Montfoucault, Piette wrote about the artist on the frozen ground and within inches of the struggles of his own painting career and the dramatic snow-laden branches, sensing the wintry air.

  • Félix Fénéon, “Neo-Impressionism” (1887) I. Impressionism, Merely
    Félix Fénéon, “Neo-Impressionism” (1887) I. Impressionism, merely latent in Turner and Delacroix (the Chapel of the Holy Angels at Saint- Sulpice), tried to turn itself into a system under Edouard Manet, MM. Camille Pissarro, Renoir, Claude Monet, Sisley, Cezanne and Ludovic Piette. These painters are distinguished by their extraordinary sensitivity to their own reactions to color, by a tendency to decompose tones, and by their attempts to imbue their canvases with intense light: In their choice of subjects, they proscribe history, anecdote and dream, and, as their working method, they promote rapid and direct execution from nature: If we want the word “Impressionism” to have any reasonably precise meaning, we have to reserve this term for the “luminists” alone: This immediately eliminates Miss Mary Cassatt, MM. Degas, Forain and Raffaelli, whom a mistaken public included under the same heading as MM. Camille Pissarro and Claude Monet: although it is true that all of them sought the sincere expression of modern life, scorned the traditions of the schools, and exhibited together. Let us recall the first Impressionist exhibitions: Given the innate stupidity of the public, the idea of choosing between well-finished paintings and wild daubings left them dumbfounded: They found it crazy that a color should produce its complementary, ultramarine giving yellow, red giving blue-green, since all the most learned Physicists would have affirmed in scholarly tones that the definitive effect of darkening all the colors of the spectrum is virtually

Seitz Museumof MotfwnArt ARCHIVE Claude Monet was the purest and most characteristic master of Impressionism. The fundamental principle of his art was a new, wholly perceptual observation of the most fleeting aspects of nature — of moving clouds and water, sun and shadow, rain and snow, mist and fog, dawn and sunset. Over a period of almost seventy years, from the late 1850s to his death in 1926, Monet must have pro duced close to 3,000 paintings, the vast majority of which were landscapes, seascapes, and river scenes. As his involvement with nature became more com plete, he turned from general representations of season and light to paint more specific, momentary, and transitory effects of weather and atmosphere. Late in the seventies he began to repeat his subjects at different seasons of the year or moments of the day, and in the nineties this became a regular procedure that resulted in his well-known "series " — Haystacks, Poplars, Cathedrals, Views of the Thames, Water ERRATA Lilies, etc.

    L’Art Moderne (1883) J.-K. Huysmans This digitized version © www.huysmans.org L’Art Moderne 2 « Contrairement à l’opinion reçue, j’estime que toute vérité est bonne à dire. C’est pourquoi je réunis ces articles qui ont paru, pour la plupart, dans le Voltaire, dans la Réforme, dans la Revue littéraire et artistique. » J.-K. H. L’Art Moderne 3 LE SALON DE 1879 I Si j’excepte tout d’abord le Herkomer, le Fantin-Latour, les Manet, les paysages de Guillemet et de Yon, une marine de Mesdag, plusieurs toiles signées Raffaëlli, Bartholomé et quelques autres, je ne vois pas trop ce qu’au point de vue de l’art moderne, nous pourrons trouver de réellement intéressant et de réellement neuf dans ces coupons de toile qui se déroulent sur tous les murs du Salon de 1879. A part les quelques artistes que je viens de citer, les autres continuent tranquillement leur petit train-train. C’est absolument comme aux exhibitions des années précédentes, ce n’est ni meilleur ni pire. La médiocrité des gens élevés dans la métairie des Beaux-Arts demeure stationnaire. On pourrait, — le présent salon le prouve une fois de plus, — diviser tous ces peintres en deux camps : ceux qui concourent encore pour une médaille et ceux qui, n’ayant pu l’obtenir, cherchent simplement à écouler leurs produits le mieux possible. Les premiers abattent ces déplorables rengaines que vous connaissez. Ils choisissent de préférence des sujets tirés de l’histoire sainte ou de l’histoire ancienne, et ils parlent constamment de faire distingué, comme si la distinction ne venait point de la manière dont on traite un sujet et non du sujet lui-même.

  • Le Salon De 1872, Les "Nouveaux Peintres"
    SALON DE 1872, LES NOUVEAUX PEINTRES TRAHIS PAR LA RÉPUBLIQUE ? Jean-François LECAILLON © MARS 2017 © En 1870, lors de la guerre franco-prussienne, les artistes n’ont pas manqué à l’appel de la Patrie en danger. Exception faite de quelques personnalités comme Cézanne le réfractaire ou Fantin-Latour vivant terré dans son logement parisien, la plupart firent leur devoir. Si quelques-uns s’exilèrent en province ou à l’étranger faute d’avoir été mobilisés (Fromentin, Monet, Boudin, Daubigny1), les appelés répondirent sans hésiter à leur convocation aux armées. Que ce soit comme officiers (Jeanniot, Protais, Dubois-Pillet), mobiles (Detaille, Carrière, Sergent), Garde national sédentaire (Meissonier, Manet, Bonnat, Degas), ils se comportèrent en bons patriotes. Parmi ceux dont la conscription n’avait pas retenu le nom, beaucoup s’engagèrent comme volontaires (Royer, Milliet, Redon), francs-tireurs (Castellani, Debat-Ponsan, Bastien-Lepage) ou suivirent de près les armées en campagne pour témoigner de leurs opérations (Beaucé, de Neuville, Lançon). Quelques-uns, et non des moindres (Bazille, Regnault, Le Pippre), le payèrent de leur vie. Berne-Bellecour, Les Tirailleurs de la Seine au combat de la Malmaison 1 A titre d’illustration, ne sont cités entre parenthèses que quelques exemples aussi variés que possible parmi tous ceux disponibles. Les références n’ont rien d’exhaustif. 1 Unis contre l’ennemi extérieur, les artistes de Paris firent bloc, se retrouvant côte à côte au 19e bataillon de la garde sédentaire (Toulmouche, Philippoteaux, Bracquemond) ou aux Tirailleurs de la Seine (Berne-Bellecour, Tissot, Cuvelier, Leloir…). Ils n’avaient pas tous les mêmes convictions politiques.

  • Camille Pissarro's Jardinière (1884-1885) in the Context of His
    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
