Impressionism is one of the worlds most popular and well-known art movements. Originated by a group of 19th-century artists based in Paris, they were seen as the rebels of their time. The paintings that came out of this period have become some of the most well-loved artworks in existance today.
The most famous Impressionist of them all has to be Claude Monet. This inspiring new colouring book produced in conjunction with the Thyssen art museum in Madrid features some of his most famous paintings including The Water Lily Pond and Woman with a Parasol. Featured is also work by other famous Impressionists including Degas, Renoir, Van Gogh, Manet, Slevogt, Pissarro, Liebermann, Gauguin, Morisot, Czanne, Sisley and Israels.
You are invited to add your own touch of colour to intricate illustrations of paintings such as Monets Tulip Fields in Holland, Degas Woman in the Bath, Gauguins Washerwomen at Pont-Arles, Renoirs Luncheon of the Boating Party and Van Goghs The Langlois Bridge at Arles. Each of the original artworks is reproduced in colour, so that you can decide whether you prefer to choose your own colours, or to use the colours that the artist intended.
