The colors used as well as the subject are often very pleasing to the viewer. For the first time in history , @1860-1930's, artist's had every color in nature and the "spectrum of Light" to easily capture life and fleeting beauty. Art clubs in France and the States were the first to promote "pleine aire" outings in which artists such as Monet, Degas, Van Gogh, J.S. Sargeant, etc produced a large number of masterpieces , rich in color and subject.

In turning to everyday subject matter, the mid-19th-century realist artists set a precedent for the next generation of the French avant-garde. Édouard Manet was the major innovator of the 1860s, and his style was a precursor of impressionism. Like Courbet, Manet found many of his subjects in the life around him: Parisians at ease in restaurants, in parks, or boating. Manet also borrowed themes and compositions from earlier masters-Velázquez and Goya-and reworked them in accordance with contemporary life, in his own style, flattening the figures and neutralizing the emotional expressions. For these and other innovations, such as his free, sketchy brushwork and broad patches of color juxtaposed without transition, he is often referred to as the first modern painter.
