1. POST-IMPRESSIONISM Done by Natalya Timasheva
Post-Impressionism is a whole a term coined by the British artist and art
critic Roger Fry in 1914, to describe the development of European art
since Monet.
It’s roughly the period between 1886 and 1892 to describe the artistic
movements based on or derived from Impressionism. The term is now
taken to mean those artists who followed the Impressionists and to some
extent rejected their ideas. Generally, they considered Impressionism too
casual or too naturalistic, and sought a means of exploring emotion in
paint.

2. POST-IMPRESSIONISM
Differences between Impressionism And
Post-Impressionism:
Impressionists focused on reproducing the
natural world but lost the use of line, shape
and color (only reflected)
Post-Impressionists wanted to restore color
and shape to art, while others wanted to
restore subjectivity rather than painting from
nature.
The P.I. created abstract versions of reality to
reinforce that art is DIFFERENT from nature
(breaking with the tradition since the
Renaissance)

” At the Moulin Rouge”
French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec Art Institute of Chicago. 1895
(1864-1901) was interested in capturing the
sensibility of modern life and deeply admired
Degas. Because of this interest and
admiration, his work intersects with that of
the Impressionists. However, his work has an
added satirical edge to it and often borders on
caricature.
Toulouse-Latutrec’s art was, to a degree, the
expression of his life.
He reveled in the energy of cheap music halls,
cafes, and bordellos. In “At the Moulin
Rouge’, the influences of Degas, of the
Japanese print, and of photography can be
seen in the oblique and asymmetrical
composition, the spatial diagonals, and the
strong line patterns with added dissonant
colors.

Vincent’s paintings had a scientific reality to them. His paintings often depict the world as it is
comprised of moving molecules and atoms. He often painted the energy that we don’t actually
see in the real world.
This painting was inspired by the Japanese printmaker Hokusai’s image of “The Great Wave”.
