Glossary Terms

-Art Nouveau
    French, \"new art.\" A late-19th- and early-20th-century art movement whose proponents tried to synthesize all the arts in an effort to create art based on natural forms that could be mass produced by technologies of the industrial age. The movement had other names in other countries: Jugendstil in Austria and Germany, Modernism in Spain, and Floreale in Italy.

-Color
    The value or tonality of a color is the degree of its lightness or darkness. The intensity or saturation of a color is its purity, its brightness or dullness. See also primary, secondary, and complementary colors.

-Complementary colors
    Those pairs of colors, such as red and green that together embrace the entire spectrum. The complement of one of the three primary colors is a mixture of the other two.

-Divisionism
    A system of painting devised by the 19th-century French painter Georges Seurat. The artist separates color into its component parts and then applies the component colors to the canvas in tiny dots (points). The image becomes comprehensible only from a distance, when the viewer\'s eyes optically blend the pigment dots. Sometimes referred to as divisionism.

-Impressionism
    A late-19th-century art movement that sought to capture a fleeting moment, thereby conveying the illusiveness and impermanence of images and conditions.

-Japonisme
    The French fascination with all things Japanese. Japonisme emerged in the second half of the 19th century.

-Modernism
    A movement in Western art that developed in the second half of the 19th century and sought to capture the images and sensibilities of the age. Modernist art goes beyond simply dealing with the present and involves the artist\'s critical examination of the premises of art itself.

-Optical mixture
    The visual effect of juxtaposed complementary colors.

-Plein air
    An approach to painting much popular among the Impressionists, in which an artist sketches outdoors to achieve a quick impression of light, air, and color. The artist then takes the sketches to the studio for reworking into more finished works of art.

-Pointillism
    A system of painting devised by the 19th-century French painter Georges Seurat. The artist separates color into its component parts and then applies the component colors to the canvas in tiny dots (points). The image becomes comprehensible only from a distance, when the viewer\'s eyes optically blend the pigment dots. Sometimes referred to as divisionism.

-Post-Impressionism
    The term used to describe the stylistically heterogeneous work of the group of late-19th-century painters in France, including van Gogh, Gauguin, Seurat, and Cézanne, who more systematically examined the properties and expressive qualities of line, pattern, form, and color than the Impressionists did.

• Primary colors
  Red, yellow, and blue the colors from which all other colors may be derived. -Simultaneous contrasts
  The phenomenon that juxtaposed colors affect the eye\’s reception of each, as when a painter places dark green next to light green, making the former appear even darker and the latter even lighter. See also successive contrasts. -Successive contrasts
  The phenomenon of colored afterimages. When a person looks intently at a color (green, for example) and then shifts to a white area, the fatigued eye momentarily perceives the complementary color (red). See also simultaneous contrasts. -Symbolism
  A late-19th-century movement based on the idea that the artist was not an imitator of nature but a creator who transformed the facts of nature into a symbol of the inner experience of that fact. -Value

Introduction

            Although Japan avoided western intrusion to its culture during the colonization in America and Eurpoe in 19^th century, there was a great admiration of Japanese art. Soon increased contact with western countries became more familiar with Japanese culture. The increased intrigue from French artists on Japanese art and culture led to the coining of the term Japonisme (Kleiner, 2008). The Japanese art influenced the artistic work of impressionists such as Manet and Degas.

1. Manet, Monet in his Studio Boat

In the summer of 1874, Manet painted Claude Monet in his studio boat (MacDonald, 1997). In the painting, he used smaller and sketchier strokes of colors. Manet was a keen follower of impressionism style, which was advocated by Monet and it involved Plein air painting that was carried out chiefly outdoor. Therefore, in his painting, Manet used Plein air painting technique.

The painting by Manet represented a realistic depiction of the light and it depicted fleeting moments of Monet in his mobile studio boat. Claude Monet was largely a poor man and depended on loans from Manet. Manet’s while painting outside in Paris, he largely made painting of about the smaller town down of River Seine, which depicted the social life of its inhabitants. In the painting, the social issues that Manet addressed include the poor housing, poor sanitation and general poverty.
