Vocabulary

ImpastoImpressionismPointillismPost-Impressionism

Impressionism

• A 19th century art movement originating in France​
• This movement focused on the natural light and color of outdoor scenes.
• Impressionist artists used short, quick brushstrokes to capture the essence of figures, rather than concern themselves with details. ​
• This technique contributed to the softer, hazy look of the paintings.​
• Impressionism was named after Claude Monet's painting, Impression, Sunrise.​

Claude Monet. Impression, Sunrise. Oil on canvas. 19 in. x 25 in. Musée Marmottan Monet.​

What is Post-Impressionism?

Why did these artists create a NEW art movement?

• An art movement in France that began in the late nineteenth century in response to Impressionism. ​
• "Post" means after, so essentially post-impressionism means after impressionism.​
• The artists during this time had their own individual and often distinct ways of creating art.​
• These artists really did not seem to have a unified style, although they had similar views about expanding on the ideas of impressionism.

Post-Impressionism

Vincent van Gogh

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

Post-Impressionist artists expanded upon Impressionism by

Georges Seurat

• Got away from natural colors and used bold or unnatural colors
• Some artists used flat planes of color – think Japanese woodblock prints​
• Some painted with exaggerated and visible brushstrokes​
• Not as concerned about depicting nature or realistic images

Paul Cézanne

Paul Gauguin

Vincent van Gogh

(vin-SENT vaan GO)

Though he is renowned as an artist today, he was not well respected in his time and sold only one painting during his short life.​He originally wanted to become a pastor as his occupation, but he eventually gave that up and moved to France to become a painter. When van Gogh became acquainted with Impressionist art for the first time and was inspired by its use of color and light. Van Gogh’s style was influenced by other artists, impressionist art, and Japanese art. He began to experiment with bright colors and loose, swirling brushstrokes.​

Vincent van Gogh. Self Portrait. 1889. Oil on canvas. 26 x 21 in. Musée d'Orsay.

Vincent van Gogh

(vin-SENT vaan GO)

He would often paint very thickly in a style known as impasto.​ ​ This is a painting technique in which the paint is applied to the canvas very thickly, sometimes with a palette knife. It gives the painting actual texture when dry.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

(AHN-ree deh Tah-LOOSE Lah-TREK)

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec was a Post-Impressionist artist born in 1864. He was very short. He broke both of his legs when he was young and never fully healed from it. Nightlife was his favorite subject and he would often paint scenes from the cabaret. The subjects of his paintings were often performers, but he was able to humanize them in his work, also depicting them as everyday people.​ Toulouse-Lautrec experimented with color, sometimes using unnatural colors to express the mood and atmosphere, and his brushstrokes were loose and sketchy.​He was an accomplished painter but he also was accomplished in another art medium.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

(AHN-ree deh Tah-LOOSE Lah-TREK)

He later established himself as a poster artist and was hired to create lithographic posters that advertised famous performers of the time. The style of his posters was influenced by Japanese woodblock prints with their areas of flat color, bold outlines, and diagonal lines.​​ This is the style he is known for!​

Georges Seurat

(zhorzh sir-AH)

Georges Seurat was a Post-Impressionist artist born in 1859.Seurat's experimental style became known as pointillism. Seurat used tiny dots of color as his brushstrokes, painted carefully next to each other in a painstakingly deliberate way so the viewer would see the colors as blended together. He believed that if an artist placed tiny dots of different colors next to one another, the human eye could mix them, especially if the work was viewed from far away. ​ His painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte is one of his most famous works and is thought to be iconic of the nineteenth century.​

Georges Seurat. The River Seine at La Grande-Jatte. 1888. Oil on canvas. 25.6 x 32.3 in. Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, Brussels, Belgium.​

Georges Seurat

(zhorzh sir-AH)

The impressionists had started to explore this idea with their short brushstrokes of color, but Georges Seurat wanted to expand on the concept.​ Through experimentation, he came up with pointillism.

Paul Cézanne

(sey-ZAN)

Paul Cézanne was born in France in 1839 to wealthy parents, and although it displeased his father, Cézanne turned away from his law studies to pursue a career in art.One of the most prominent features that Cézanne brought to the world of art was his geometric simplification. He intensely studied whatever he was painting and brought it back to the simplest geometric form it could be reduced to.

Paul Cézanne. Self Portrait with Beret. 1899. Oil on canvas. 25.3 x 21 in. Museum of Fine Art Boston.​

• Cézanne kept most of his colors darker. He used natural, neutral colors in a bit darker shades than the other post-impressionist artists.
• Cézanne tended to look at his subjects as individual shapes assembled together and painted them that way.

Back

Paul Gauguin

(go-GAN)

He was born in France in 1848 but traveled with his family to Peru when he was young and lived there for several years. What he saw in Peru would later influence Gauguin in his art; it was there that he first saw art in South American pottery.​ From an early age, Paul Gauguin was influenced by South American art. Much of the culture inspired him in his painting, and his work took on more symbolic meaning.

Paul Guaguin. Tahitian Women on the Beach. 1891. 27.2 x 35.8 in. Oil on canvas. Musée d'Orsay, Paris.​

Paul Gauguin

(go-GAN)

Gauguin’s style began to evolve into painting with built-up flat layers of simplified colors and solid, clearly defined forms, often with bold outlines.​ ​Paul Gauguin was interested in other cultures. He lived in Tahiti and painted the local people and landscapes.​ His work was no recognized until after he died.

Paul Guaguin. Vision after the Sermon. 1888. 29 x 36 in. Oil on canvas. Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art.

The setting sun was from another van Gogh painting! But look how bright that sky is, the sun would NOT be setting!

The Wright brothers didn't make their first successful airplane flight until 15 years AFTER this painting was made!

While the first car was made by Karl Benz in 1885 or 1886, it would not have looked anything like the car shown in the painting. That was based off of a much more modern car.

The woman and the horse were from two different van Gogh artworks! Which is why they look like they could belong!

The dog laying on the ground would be a natural thing to expect in a farm painting, but the original did not include one!
