David describes the evolution of Impressionism from its experimental beginnings in the Gleyre studio in Paris in 1862 with Monet and his friends Sisley, Renoir, Bazille, Pissarro - to its later stage (and beyond)of explosive color, loose brushwork, complementary color vivid sunshine and sensual delight.
