The difference between Impressionism and Post-Impressionism

1, Impressionism, also known as Impressionism, is an epoch-making art school in the history of western painting, which rose in France in the 1960s and 1990s.

2. Post-impressionist art movement is a painting style that appeared in France from 1885 to 1905.

Second, the inclusion relationship is different.

Post-impressionism includes all artistic movements that originate from or oppose impressionism, such as neo-impressionism, symbolism, comprehensiveness and Nabism.

Impressionism and post-impressionism are both painting by feeling, painting by scientific methods, which are very objective art and the result of excessive development of realism. Influenced by the anti-objective science in philosophy and literature, painting has to add subjective elements, that is, strong self-expression based on personality.

Third, the expression techniques are different.

1, impressionism shows the fleeting effect of light and color, excessively seeks the feeling of light and color, and replaces necessity with accident. Since it is based on feelings, it must be subjective, so impressionism describes the objective things described by subjective colors.

2. Post-impressionism is completely different. It can express a person's subjective feelings first. This color is the original color of an objective object. More importantly, use this image to express your subjective feelings. Therefore, this school believes that it is more important to express the painter's subjective feelings about the objective world than to imitate the world like Impressionism.
