However, since the 1840s, paint had been transferred into metal tubes, making it more convenient for painters to travel and create their art anywhere.
The group often made their way to the edges of farmland and to rivers, lakes, and gardens, setting up their easels anywhere there was free space.
Some prefer to paint by the harbors, and others ventured to the beaches of Normandy.
Their ultimate goal was to capture urban, coastal, and rural life on canvas as it was happening.
During the 1860s, many of the group had managed to get traditional portrait works accepted to the Académie de Beauvoir.
Some of their pieces had also been exhibited in the famous Paris Salon.
But when submitting their new style of painting, they were faced with constant rejection.
The judges at the Academy were known for being conservative.
They wanted photographic realism, something that didn't fit with the group's loose style of oil painting.
By now, lots of artists were embracing the new genre of art, but one by one, the Academy refused to show their works in the salon.
Although some painters still hoped to win recognition at the official salon, others decided to take matters into their own hands.
In 1874,
A group of artists started a movement called the Anonymous Society of Painters, Sculptors and Printmakers.
The purpose was to distance themselves and the genre from the Académie de Beaux-Arts and have complete autonomy over their works.
They didn't want to have any affiliations with any political party.
Members of the society included Monet, Renoir, Morisot, Pissarro and Degas.
They invited people to subscribe to company shares for five francs a month.
Now aware that they were not going to get anywhere with the Academy, they had to make their own success in the art world.
Monet was friends with a man known as Nadar, a photographer.
He happened to have a third-floor studio with floor-to-ceiling windows on the Rue du Capucine.
