The eyes are presented with dazzling dobs of brush-strokes, layers and layers of strokes creating an image that leaves a lasting impression. Early critics didn't mean to use the word impression as a compliment; they felt the strokes seemed unfinished as well as the paintings, but the movement grew and was soon enjoyed throughout the world. This survey starts with Impressionism's shocking start, then presents its roots and revolution, its growth and turmoil, and the lasting impact of this movement on civilization.
