en plein air
June 28 A method of painting associated with Impressionism, en plein air quite literally means 'in the open air'. Practiced by artists such as Claude Monet, a painted work would be completed on location rather than in the studio, thus allowing an artist the immediate ability to capture the quality of light and changing colors of a landscape. |
