Degas Monet Renoir Cezanne	Today you are going to be reviewing the Impressionist movement of art. By clicking on the website link at the bottom, you will be taken through a guided tour of how the Impressionists got their start, what influenced them, and what made them so different from the art that was already being produced. If for some reason the tour should freeze on you, go ahead and close the window and reopen the tour. You can use the icons at the bottom of the screen to move from page to page. If you should finish the tour and worksheet before the end of class, take time to visit any of the sites listed. These sites will provide you with a more in-depth look at the different, Impressionist painters. Guided Tour: Go to: http://www.impressionism.org/ On the left side of the homepage you will see “Experience Impressionism”. Click on that link to begin the tour.
