What is Post-Impressionism Art Style
Post-Impressionism is an art movement that developed in the 1890s.
Great things are done by a series of small things brought together. — Vincent van Gogh.
Post-Impressionism was a mainly French art movement that developed between 1886 and 1905, from the last Impressionist exhibition to the birth of Fauvism.
Post-Impressionism emerged as a reaction against Impressionists concern for the naturalistic showing of light and color.
Post-Impressionists were a continuation of Impressionism but rejected its limitations.
Artists continued using vivid colors, often the thick application of paint and real-life subject, but they were inclined to use geometric forms, distort form for expressive effect, and use arbitrary color.
The proeminents Post-Impressionists artists were Vincent van Gogh, Georges Seurat, Paul Cézanne, and Paul Gauguin
Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890).
