Impressionism- Instead of showing life as it really was the painters tried to show their impression of a subject or a moment in time. this is of a guy in the water when the sun is setting.

Claude Monet, Soleil Levant, 1872

Realism- Tried to show life as it was, not as it should be. This is a picture of how life was with slaves and not how it should be with everyone equal.
Jean- Francois Millet. The Gleaners. 1857.


Romanticism- This movement reflected deep interest both in nature and in the thoughts and feelings of the individual. This picture shows romanticism because it is about one of the two categories,nature.
