The above painting is representative of what artistic movement?
Possible Answers:
Cubism
Abstract Expressionism
Surrealism
Impressionism
Pointilism
Correct answer:
Impressionism
Explanation:
This painting, Edgar Degas' "The Dance Lesson," was painted in 1879 and is a classic representation of impressionism. With its visible and broad brush strokes and its detached point of view, this painting features the hallmarks of impressionism, a painting style developed in France in the late nineteenth century. Degas preferred to call his artistic style "realism," because he believed his method of painting captured the realistic emotion of a scene, if not an exact representation of it.
