Product description

IMPRESSIONISTS, THE: THE OTHER FRENCH RE

Amazon.com

This epic documentary does a wonderful job of recapturing the revolutionary impact the impressionists made while providing a historical and artistic context for this extraordinary group of painters. The work of Monet, Degas, Morisot, and their fellow impressionists has now become so familiar that its power to shock has all but disappeared.

Young and resolutely modern, these artists threw off the shackles of academic art to capture everyday life in paintings that were iconoclastic in both style and subject. At first they struggled to survive because their work was rejected by the conservative Paris Salon, but those with independent means helped those without (Monet in particular was frequently rescued from poverty by his friends), and gradually they became impossible to ignore. Bruce Alfred's script thoroughly explains the development of the impressionists' approach to art and reveals fascinating aspects of their individual personalities, while a combination of dramatic reconstructions, period photographs, and the paintings themselves creates a rich and informative visual tapestry. Anyone with an interest in the history of art will find much to enjoy. --Simon Leake

5.0 out of 5 stars Knocked me for a loop!

I loved "The Impressionists" DVD so much, I had to watch it two more times in a row! As an artist myself, I was inspired, awestruck, humbled, and thoroughly captivated while watching this A&E two-DVD documentary of the art revolutionists (Renoir, Monet, Degas, Pissaro, and Morisot) of 19th century France who challenged the rules of traditionalism by painting from real life--and, in an avant-garde style--unheard of at a time when biblical and historical-themed art painted in the style of the old masters was the norm!

Edward Herrmann's narration is just perfect! Smooth and captivating, Herrmann's soothing vocals provide the icing on the cake! Herrmann is truly one of the great narrators of all time! Great biographies + beautiful artwork + history in the making = great entertainment--what more could you want?

Update: Eleven months later, and I STILL watch this documentary over and over again; I just can't get enough of it!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Impression!

This set is a truly captivating opus in all respects. Aside from the most informative historical content, the production is beautifully presented in a way that both fascinates and captivates the viewer, enveloping and transporting him back in time.

The appreciation and understanding gained for the artists is wonderful within the context of their individual techniques, hardships and struggles to become accepted. The paintings, needless to say, are visual feasts skillfully presented. The musical soundtrack and superb narration are models for the documentary genre.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Impressionists is for self-learning
Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2013

First of all, I love the French Impressionists and Post Impressionists. I bought this thinking I could use it for my 20th Century Humanities class, but it is too detailed (which I love for my own self learning), and too long. If you need individual 22 minute films on each individual artist and their specific style - get The Impressionists with Tim Marlow - an Art Historian who keeps it simple. I personally loved watching the DVD and learned from it, but once was enough. More recommended for serious Art Historian lovers or lovers of these artists.
