Impression, Sunrise

Hazy view of the harbor at Le Havre at sunrise, with industrial smokestacks, small boats, and a vivid orange sun reflected on the water.

Significance

The painting that gave Impressionism its name, when a critic used "Impression" derisively. Stolen in 1985 and recovered in 1990, it remains the movement's foundational image.
