Artistic Style and Historical Importance sought to capture fleeting moments in the flow of modern life Prefered theater and café scenes with artificial light rather than plain air andscapes Early paintings were static, and frieze-like Depicted young girls with snub noses and immature bodies little in common with Monet and the other landscape painters, whom he mocked for painting outdoors. Conservative in his social attitudes, he abhorred the scandal created by the exhibitions, as well as the publicity and advertising that his colleagues sought. He bitterly rejected the label Impressionist that the press had created and popularized, and his insistence on including such comparatively traditional artists as Jean-Louis Forain and Jean-François Raffaëlli in their exhibitions created rancor within the group, contributing to their eventual disbanding in 1886.
