"En plein air" is a French phrase that means "in the open air." It is commonly used to describe the practice of painting outdoors, capturing the natural light and scenery directly from life, rather than in a studio. This approach emphasizes the effects of natural light and atmosphere on the subject being painted. It’s often associated with Impressionist artists who sought to depict the transient beauty of the landscape.
