Watching this and other lectures makes me want to make sure to visit the MFA when I am there next! I truly love learning from them. They bring a joy to my life, kind of like art does! Thank you! Paula

"Impressionist paintings don't expect of us a knowledge of literature or of religion or of ancient history in order to appreciate their subject. They don't really tell stories. They are of their moment, but they are of a moment. And that, I think, is part of their enduring pleasure, the immediacy that they have."

Regarding picture size. Another reason, possibly the main reason for the similarity, was the light outdoors changes very quickly. One could imagine them painting. The light would be considerably different from when they started to completion.

This is not to criticize, but this is the second video by MFA that mentions Japanese art and overlooks naming Utagawa Hiroshige. He was as famous in Japan and a noted artist in his own right and might be why Monet used him as a model of style and effective painting. Just a thought.

These are great lectures, and as such it would really be helpful to have a list of links to the other in the series with each of them, so we don't have to go huntin.

One other thing she does not mention is how The term Impressionism was coined. The story was that an art critic saw the show and disdainfully, to criticize to works, implied these were not artworks but “ impressions” the name for this brand of art stuck.

Present day knowledge does not fully appreciate the advancement of the tube paint technology. Think of Michelangelo painting the Sistine Chapel. Every color he used was mixed on the spot by assistants and lifted up to him to paint into freshly applied plaster only in the section he was working. Now imagine if he had his paint already mixed in a tube. I wonder the magnificent work these and other masters would create with today’s technology.

Several issues not mentioned. The Salon; the official presenter of what was considered great art, stacked their walls approx. from floor to ceiling, butting works against each other. Also Impressionism was not considered acceptable art and rejected from the salon shows. Lastly, Impressionist listed their show as “ The Refusés” meaning the refused art. Which inadvertently drew large crowds as a result.

Very good information. But Katie Hanson needs to work on NOT saying "um" every few words -- it becomes distracting.

I watch this on my iPad. Why are the Pictures the size of a postage stamp on a large expanse of BLACK ? One needs a magnifying glass to admire the artwork. I am an artist (I think) and the picture should be of more importance than the large black void. I observe this often in art books. For design purpose, a tiny picture on a large empty page.

I beg to differ about Monet being the most masterly interpreter of water. Investigate the Artist Anders Zorn. He, in my mind, was the true master of water. Compare for yourself. This does not diminish Monet in any way. Comparisons are never a good idea.

I know the speaker has time constraints so can’t speak to working methods. So, many artists, then as now, made “ studies” some in different media. Charcoal, pastel, oil or tempera. Quick unfinished “ideas” of a scene.

Is Monet's art not interesting enough to fill 120 min with something interesting to say? Why did she keep repeating the same things over and over?
