    Guys I decided to focus on the Renaissance for European. However I want to cover something from the Impressionists/anything from French painting in the 19th centrury in case the questions crazy and I have time now to study it. What would you recommend? Van gogh is predicted so will i try him?

    a good last minute artist to study is Kandinsky! He fits into that question in the European Section that comes up most years about discussing a work featuring women, water, horses etc. He painted nearly everything so he can fit into some question if anyone is stuck :)

    Degas is good for this question too - never studied Kandinsky though... I shall check it out...

    Anyone got some notes on Manet, Renoir or Pisarro they could send me? I'm trying to cover as many impressionists as possible :pac:

    I am an Art teacher who is updating her teaching resources - basically I'm finally going digital! I am at present building a website of art history notes and trying to embed videos into the site. I have made a video on Manet's painting "le Déjeuner sur L'Herb - I discuss his use of light and of brushstrokes which is core to understanding any impressionist painting.
    Let me know if this video is of any help to you and I can send you links in the next couple of weeks to further resources. Best of luck in the Leaving Cert!
