Impression, Sunrise, by Monet 🖼🖌⛅️

🇬🇧 With his revolutionary painting, Impression, Sunrise, exhibited for the first time in Paris in April 1874, Monet gave, unintentionally, the name to the nascent Impressionist movement that also included fellow contemporary artists like Pissarro, Manet, Renoir and Sisley. The term was used in a dispregiative sense by the art critic Louis Leroy in his critique of the collective exhibition but was taken up by the movement as a way of describing their approach to painting. Impressionism was a term in use before this painting was exhibited to describe the effect of a natural scene on the painter or the effect of a painting on the viewer. The painting is now on display at the Museum Marmottan Monet in Paris.

🇫🇷 Avec sa peinture révolutionnaire, Impression, soleil levant, exposée pour la première fois à Paris en avril 1874, Claude Monet a donné, involontairement, le nom au mouvement impressionniste naissant qui comprenait également d’autres artistes contemporains tels que Pissarro, Manet, Renoir et Sisley. Le terme a été utilisé dans un sens déprégiatif par le critique d’art Louis Leroy dans sa critique de l’exposition collective, mais a été repris par le mouvement comme un moyen de décrire son approche de la peinture. L’impressionnisme était un terme utilisé avant que ce tableau ne soit exposé pour décrire l’effet d’une scène naturelle sur le peintre ou l’effet d’un tableau sur le spectateur. La peinture est maintenant exposée au Musée Marmottan Monet à Paris.

🇮🇹 Con questo dipinto rivoluzionario, Impressione, levar del sole, esposto per la prima volta a Parigi nell’aprile del 1874, Claude Monet ha dato, involontariamente, il nome al nascente movimento impressionista che comprendeva anche artisti contemporanei come Pissarro, Manet, Renoir e Sisley. Il termine fu usato in senso spregiativo dal critico d’arte Louis Leroy nella sua critica della mostra collettiva, ma fu preso dal movimento come un modo per descivere il loro approccio alla pittura. Impressionismo era un termine in uso prima che questo dipinto fosse esposto, per descrivere l’effetto di una scena naturale sul pittore o l’effetto di un dipinto sullo spettatore. Il dipinto è ora in mostra al Museo Marmottan Monet di Parigi.
