April 1876 CE
The second Impressionist exhibition, with twenty participants, is held in Paris at No. 11 rue Le Peletier, Galerie Durand-Ruel, in April 1876.
The Impressionists stubbornly strive to produce light-suffused paintings from which black is excluded, but their pursuits lead to many disappointments, as their paintings, so divergent from traditional formulas, continue to be frequently rejected by the juries of the Salon and are extremely difficult to sell.
