In 1874, the first major exhibition of Impressionist works was held in Paris, generating both praise and controversy. The paintings' bold colors and unconventional brushwork challenged established artistic norms.
Impressionism's Arrival in England
Impressionism first arrived in England in the late 1870s, introduced by British artists who had studied in France. Among them were Walter Sickert and John Singer Sargent, who became champions of the movement.
In 1889, Vincent van Gogh moved to England, bringing his unique brand of Post-Impressionism to the country. His vibrant and expressive paintings further challenged the prevailing artistic establishment.
The Critical Reception
The critical reception of Impressionism in England was initially mixed. Some critics praised its freshness and originality, while others condemned its lack of detail and technical skill.
John Ruskin, the influential art critic, famously dismissed Impressionism as "a mere makeshift and trickery." However, other critics, such as George Moore and Roger Fry, recognized the artistic merit and potential of Impressionism.
The Legacy of Impressionism in England
Despite initial resistance, Impressionism gradually gained acceptance in England. By the early 20th century, it had become an established and respected art movement.
Impressionism influenced the work of numerous British artists, including Gwen John, Augustus John, and Matthew Smith. It also had a lasting impact on the development of modern art in England.
