Impression Realism |
Description | |
Malaga, Andalusia, Spain. The Mediterranean port city of Malaga has its own "11th century palatial fortification". The slight slope which leads up tp the fortress is only steps away from Malaga´s first century BC Roman Theatre. The "Impression Realism" here applied recalls the beautiful views of the sea visible from the walls surronding the Alcazaba and the personal experience of standing in the shore´s tide "getting ones feet wet".. There is always a hidden symbolic meaning behind the use of the shoreline in the foreground, viewed from within the water and the background showing the high sea. The passage of life. |

Same Style Impressionism |
|
An art movement founded in France in the last third of the 19th century. Impressionist artists sought to break up light into its component colors and render its ephemeral play on various objects. The artist's vision was intensely centered on light and the ways it transforms the visible world. This style of painting is characterized by short brush strokes of bright colors used to recreate visual impressions of the subject and to capture the light, climate and atmosphere of the subject at a specific moment in time. The chosen colors represent light which is broken down into its spectrum components and recombined by the eyes into another color when viewed at a distance (an optical mixture). The term was first used in 1874 by a journalist ridiculing a landscape by Monet called Impression - Sunrise. |
