2Next, I will look at how the definition ‘impressionists’, in the the meaning of «independents», «falangists», and «revolutionaries» (Brummer 2002: 77), lived on in Hans Jæger’s and Christian Krohg’s use of term in the second half of the 1880s and in the radical bohemian social milieu in the Norwegian capital. In addition, I will also consider Jæger’s interpretation of the term as a subjective turn of naturalism, which connects to
