Post Impressionism
Vincent Van Gogh
1853-90c.1885-1905 | ||
The Post Impressionists were a few independent artists at the end of the 19th century who rebelled against the limitations of Impressionism to develop a range of personal styles that influenced the development of art in the 20th century. The major artists associated with Post Impressionism were Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Vincent Van Gogh and Georges Seurat. Cézanne was an important influence on Picasso and Braque in their development ofCubism. Van Gogh's vigorous and vibrant painting technique was one of the touchstones of both Fauvism andExpressionism, while Gauguin's symbolic color and Seurat's pointillist technique were an inspiration to Les Fauves. |
