Originals in this selection, Impressionism, Pencil, under 500 euro.
Formats from 43 x 61 to 63 x 48 cm.
Light in shades of gray
Impressionism in pencil captures light without color, using only hatching, blending and paper white. Impressionist pencil drawings for sale under 500 euro come as landscapes, garden motifs and street scenes with a soft atmosphere.
Where impressionists dab color, the draftsman lays loose hatching that joins in the eye to a shimmer. The white of the paper stays as light, a soft pencil lays down damp shadows. Morning mist, backlight in foliage or reflections on water arise without a drop of color.

Mood over detail
Contours are suggested, details flow into one another. The sheet does not ask for exact legibility, it wants to convey an impression. In rooms with soft daylight and pale walls such drawings work best.
Frame and protection
Soft graphite smudges easily, so a mat belongs with it to keep the pane of glass at a distance. Choose a light, simple frame. Ask about paper type and whether the drawing has been fixed.
