QUESTION OF THE DAY:

[Art]: What constitutes "Impressionistic" Art?
ANSWER:

The impressionist style of painting is characterized chiefly by concentration on the general impression produced by a scene or object and the use of unmixed primary colors and small strokes to simulate actual reflected light.

The impressionist style developed in France between 1867 and 1890, with principal painters that include Claude Monet, Pierre Renoir, Edgar Degas, and Paul Cezanne.
