Answer
Impressionism, a late 19th-century art movement known for its spontaneous and visually striking brushstrokes and vibrant color palettes, serves as a useful comparison to the music of French composer Henri Dutilleux. The spontaneity and vividness Dutilleux achieves through his orchestral textures and manipulation of instrumental tone colors echo the visual qualities of Impressionist paintings.
