Or so the story works.
Considering both texts, it seems many extra probable that the impressionists themselves adopted the term because of the views so coherently expressed in the latter article, no because of Leroy's tiny parody.
"The mutual view that brings these talents together in a team and makes of them a collective coerce among our disintegrating old is their determination not to intention for perfection, but to be satisfied with a decisive common facet. Once the impression is arrested, they allege their role finished. The term Japanese, which was given them premier, made no sense. If one wishes to represent and explain them with a unattached word, then one would must coin the word impressionists. They are impressionists in that they do not render a landscape, but the sensation produced by the landscape. The word itself has passed into their language: in the list the Sunrise by Monet is cried not landscape, but impression. Thus they take leave of reality and enter the realms of idealism."
And so, considering the circumstances,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we happen to have the accurate appointment of birth of the term: 25 April 1874. On namely day the article, captioned The Exhibition of the Impressionists, was promulgated in Le Charivari, the fashionable Parisian journal Leroy contributed apt.

In fact, the painting was only responsible as providing the term. It wasn't singled out because its qualities (or lack thereof): no, Leroy detested all of them equally.
Four days later Leroy's article, aboard April 29, 1874, and evidently ignorant of Leroy's article (or just refusing to grant it), the analyst Jules Castagnary published in Le Siècle a reiterate - very differ in intonation and approximate - where the terms impressionist and "impressionism are accustomed for the first period in a thoughtful way.
Journalists of the 19th centenary, particularly French ones, prided themselves on their sharp tongue (accompanied or not by one equally keen intellect). Louis Leroy was one of them. His intellect may have been sharp or not,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], yet he was probably quite happy with his own bon mot while he derided a group of painters displaying blurry pictures for impressionists.

Clearly the impressionists read the magazine also,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for they quickly accepted Leroy's insult and started using it themselves. They loved it.
And entire for of this painting: Claude Monet, Impression: Sunrise, 1872.
Here is the pertinent very illuminating excerpt:
