There's a great course entitled "From Monet to Van Gogh: A History of Impressionism" offered by the Teaching Company. It's 24 half-hour lectures on DVD by Richard Brettell who teaches at the U. of Dallas and used to be the Impressionism Curator at the Art Institute of Chicago. It's an outstanding introduction to the subject by a gifted teacher. My wife and I are watching it for the second time.

I have found all the Teaching Company material useful. Robert Greenberg does an awesome job on the history of music CDs. They are great to listen to during commutes.

I highly recommend anything they do. (I haven't seen the art yet, but I'm sure it's great too.)
