Post-Impressionism

Post-Impressionism - Post-Impressionist

 

Post-Impressionism is an art movement that developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a reaction to Impressionism. While Impressionism focused on capturing the fleeting effects of light and atmosphere in a more immediate and spontaneous way, Post-Impressionist artists sought to further develop and explore the emotional and symbolic aspects of art. Post-Impressionism encompasses a diverse range of styles and approaches, including the pointillism of Georges Seurat, the vibrant colors of Vincent van Gogh, and the bold, simplified forms of Paul Cézanne. This movement played a pivotal role in the transition from Impressionism to modern art and had a significant influence on subsequent art movements.
