Impressionism

Located under the stairs to the lower floor, still in the area reserved to the collection of the Baroness. I am going to see the paintings of the Impressionists: they are wonderful. According to some I had to stop at "Charing Cross Bridge" by Claude Orayan Monet. Son of a grocery shop keeper, he was born in 1840 in Paris and at 15 he entered the artists' world as a caricaturist, he would turn to a more realist style afterwards. But it was from 1860 onwards that he starts to paint works of a very marked Impressionist style. He actually paints the painting called "Impression, rising sun" during his stay in the harbor of Le Havre, giving the name to the painting movement corresponding.
