From Paris to the East

In France, Impressionist passion for painting outdoors had an urban manifestation in the works of Caillebotte and Toulouse-Lautrec. But the concerns of Impressionism with regard to brushstroke, light, and color also carry beyond France to Germany and Holland. And further east, in Russia, Impressionist light and Realist brushwork meet when St. Petersburg Academy students rebeled against art tied strictly to mythology and religion and turn to their own Russian landscapes and people as subjects.
