Quiz: Know Your French Impressionists

Sunday August 29, 2004
monet-waterlillies-art.jpg They were an interesting bunch, the French Impressionists, and drew many non-French Impressionists into their orbit. They changed Western art - and the way we view it - forever. I thought it'd be fun to spotlight seven gentlemen and one lady, in order that you could test your knowledge of the group. If you get all 20 questions correct, kudos! That would be a much higher percentage than the person who wrote the quiz enjoyed. She had to look everything up. Enjoy, and good luck!

Today (August 29) in Art History:

  • Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (French Neo-classicist painter), born in 1780
  • Jack Butler Yeats (Irish Modernist painter), born in 1871
