Claude Monet: Great Artists
Description
Impressionism created illusion by capturing the effects of light on form. Of all the Impressionists, Monet carried this concept to its most extreme expression. He painted sixteen views of Waterloo Bridge in London, and twenty-six views of the Rouen Cathedral at different hours of the day in order to capture the effects of changing light. Monet therefore is considered the archetypal Impressionist and it was his painting, Impression: Sunrise (1872) that gave the Impressionists their name.
