Before the 19th century, most paintings were based on historical, political, mythological and religious themes due to the influence of social and religious environments. However, after entering the 19th century, with the advancement of the Industrial Revolution and urbanization, the growth of the middle class allowed people to have more financial resources and began to enjoy various leisure activities. Impressionist painters came into being and depicted the daily lives and leisure time of these people on canvas. Breaking away from the academic style that dominated the art world at the time, the Impressionist painters were no longer confined to the studio, but turned their attention to nature where they could fully experience light, color and air. They particularly like to vividly depict Parisians enjoying their daily romance and leisure through scenes such as picnics, boating, sunbathing, cafes, streets and gardens. The media exhibition "Holiday in Paris: Holiday in Paris" reinterprets the works of French Impressionist representative painters Auguste Renoir, Edouard Manet, Georges Seurat and Gustave Caillebotte through immersive digital media art, and through interactive elements, it makes the audience feel as if they have traveled back to 19th century Paris and become the protagonists enjoying leisure in Impressionist works. Philosopher Hegel once said: "Rest is the most precious thing in the world." It is a great pleasure for human beings to have peace of mind, temporarily get rid of physical and mental fatigue, and enjoy their own rest time. For those modern people who are tired of endless life and work, entering the exhibition hall, immersing themselves in the works of representative painters of Impressionism, and feeling the romance and leisure of Paris will be an impulse to get rid of physical and mental fatigue. We hope that the Paris scenery against the backdrop of the Seine River, the leisurely boating scenes and the sunbathing scenes on the grass reproduced through immersive media art can provide modern people with an excellent space to temporarily escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a rest.
