Les huit Expositions impressionnistes.png

The eight Impressionist Exhibitions, Impressionism series

Young painters who were too often rejected by the Salon's conservative jury decided to take matters into their own hands.

From 1874 onwards, exhibitions by the Impressionists — also known as the 'Intransigents' or the 'Enragés' [Enraged]— inscribed a group of young artists into the history books. The layout of the premises, the grouping of works by artist, the unconventional framing, and the new colours on the walls all clashed with the Salon's exhibition principles; some critics reacted both fiercely and memorably.
