1-Compare and contrast Monet’s Gare Saint-Lazare and Cezanne’s Mont Sainte-Victoire.
Explain why both of these artists fit into the Impressionist period. Explain what each artist was

these works? (Think about how the Salon would look at both of these subjects).
The artists mentioned above fit into the impressionist description through their peace of work

destinations. Unlike the ancient buildings, the tower took considerable shorter time with lesser
