Radiance and Revolution: The Impact of Light and Color in 19th and 20th Century Impressionism
Abstract: Impressionism, an art movement that emerged between the 19th and 20th centuries, significantly transformed the landscape of visual art, particularly in the United States. Originating in Paris during the 1860s, with Claude Monet as its pioneering figure, Impressionism marked a departure from traditional artistic conventions and the rise of a new approach that challenged the realism of photography. Prominent artists like Camille Pissarro, Édouard Manet, Edgar Degas, and Renoir contributed …

Guidelines for Day Light Design of Buildings: A Study Towards Sustainable Architecture
Abstract: Daylight provides high illuminance and permits excellent color discrimination and color rendering. These two properties mean that daylight provides the condition for good vision. However, daylight can also produce uncomfortable solar glare and very high luminance reflections on display screens, both of which interfere with good vision. Daylight strategies and systems have not always lived up to their promise as energy efficiency strategies that enhance occupant comfort and performance. One …
