Impressionism is not exclusive style of the visual aesthetics, because others artistic expressions of the 19th century and modernity are touched by the trend. In Belle Époque, virtually all artists, literary or not, are its tributaries. Among the Portuguese-speaking literati, we mentioned Raul Pompeia, the last Machado de Assis and Eça de Queirós; Graça Aranha and Adelino Magalhães; everyone in the narrative. In the speakers of foreigner languages and even genre, we mentioned Edmond and Jules Goncourt, who paint chromatic verbal descriptions; Marcel Proust and Thomas Wolfe, in a memorialism of the sensations; and Henry James, from the perspective of the inaccurate. In the theater, we quote Chekhov, identified with a philosophy of the moment. Therefore here we discuss the dramatic genre, especially in modernity, in relation to the Impressionist painting, exactly in creations of Chekhov for impersonation, keeping us in approach of Three Sisters (1901), masterpiece of scenic Impressionism.
