Questioning those who view Impressionism solely in terms of artistic technique, this title describes the painting of Manet, Degas, Seurat, and others as an attempt to give form to that modernity and seek out its typical representatives - be they bar-maids, boaters, prostitutes, sightseers, or petits bourgeois lunching on the grass.
