The Art Institute of Chicago, although renowned for its holdings of works by the French Impressionists, also houses a wealth of superb examples by American proponents of this distinctive style. The breadth of the museum's collection of American Impressionism is rich, with a substantial body of paintings and watercolors by Winslow Homer, who is seen today as a precursor to Impressionism, as well as impressive portfolios of work by Americans living in Europe, such as James McNeill Whistler and John Singer Sargent, and the only American who was officially part of the French group, Mary Cassatt. In addition, important paintings and watercolors by notable artists such as Cecilia Beaux, William Merritt Chase, Childe Hassam, George Inness, Mauric Prendergast, and John Twachtman are included, along with handsomely reproduced images by lesser-known artists who worked in the Impressionist vein. Distributed for the Art Institute of Chicago

Impressionism -- the interpretation of nature through color and light -- was the most powerful influence on American painters until after World War II. William H. Gerdts offers here an overview of the movement, followed by 66 superb full-page colorplates, each accompanied by an informative commentary. He begins with Mary Cassatt and moves to John Singer Sargent. Discussed next are the artists who worked in Giverny, France, under the influence of Money -- Theodore Robinson, John Leslie Breck, and Dawson Dawson-Watson. Gerdts then considers Childe Hassam, Julian Alden Weir, William Merritt Chase, and John Twachtman, as well as various groups such as the Old Lyme, Connecticut, art colony; the Society of Ozark Painters, and artists working on the West Coast. He concludes with the second generation of Americans in Giverny, Frederick Frieseke and Richard Miller. -- Form publisher's description.
