The Impressionists: Painting and Revolution is a four-part BBC documentary series presented by art writer Waldemar Januszczak, exploring the revolutionary achievements of the Impressionists. Through the series, Waldemar Januszczak tells the stories of some of the most famous painters: Monet, Degas and Van Gogh, as well as less-known Impressionists such as Caillebotte, Cassatt and Bracquemond.
