Week of October 7- Late 18th & 19th Centuries

   Impressionism





Impressionism was developed in the 1870's and is a style which was developed in France. This style is based on the scenery in which the artwork is being painted, and solely the vision of the painter. Impressionism artworks are those of detail influenced by mental perception, many Impressionists used unmixed primary colors, followed by light brushstrokes in order to simulate the conditions under which the artwork was painted, such as streaks of sunlight and reflections, or shadows.

Post Impressionism






Melting snow Fontainbleau (Paul Cezanne)








Post Impressionism is a style used in artworks of late 19th, and early 20th century artists, whose objective was to counter that of Impressionists, and their naturalism, or focus on nature and on only how they perceive it to be based on sight, as opposed to the post impressionists who focused on exploring the makeup of artworks, and differing the color, line, and form. This was based on the feelings and response, emotionally of the artist.
