Impressionism was an [[art]] movement of the 19th century that began in [[Paris]]. It is characterized by a light color scheme and noticeable brushstrokes. Impressionist painters focused more on the feeling of a picture rather than details. If you were to look closely at an impressionistic painting it would look more like thousands of random brushstrokes all across the canvas. But once you step back all the strokes come together and make a beautiful piece of art. The most famous impressionist artist was [[Claude Monet]]. Other famous impressionists included: [[Edouard Manet]], [[Pierre-Auguste Renoir]], Paul Cezanne, [[Edgar Degas]], Vango and [[Mary Cassatt]]. This new style also spread to [[music]] and literature.

Recent impressionists include John Culshaw, Rory Bremner, Ronni Ancona and Alistair McGowan. However, strictly these belong to the British school founded by Michael Yarwood.
