19th Century Sculpture
• Rodin was a realist sculptor of the mid-to-late 19 th century• He was denied entrance into the Ecole des Beaux Arts as a
student and later could not get his works into the Paris Salons
• A trip to Italy and the works of Michelangelo inspired him to make The Age of Bronze which got into the Paris Salon of 1877. It caused a scandal because people could not believe it had not been cast from a live model.
• He was commissioned to do a set of bronze doors for the Museum of dcorative arts but dies before finishing them. His most famous sculpture, The Thinker, was to go above the doors.

Impressionists
• Use daubs of different color paint side by side rather than mixing colors. Your eyes do the mixing!
• Do not try to hide their brush strokes
• Try to convey movement and the glint of light in landscapes and even in portraits
• Post-impressionists used odd colors, larger or smaller brush strokes
Late 19th Century Artists began to show the disillusionment that characterized 20th Century Art of the Interwar Period
• Edvard Munch
• The Scream
Department Stores
• Bon Marche and La Samaritaine
