Post-Impressionismand the Late Nineteenth CenturySeptember 20, 2007Ms LeRoy

Notes• Diverse styles yet all influenced by Impressionism.

• Bright colour and visible, distinctive brushstrokes.

• Two trends: Cézanne and Seurat have a strong sense of formal structure, while Gauguin and Van Gogh explore emotional content. Both trends set the stage for early twentieth-century art.

Georges Seurat, A Sunday on La Grande Jatte, 1884-86

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, At the Moulin Rouge, 1892

Paul Cézanne, Mont Sainte-Victoire, 1902-1904

Paul Gaugin, la Orana Maria, 1892

Vincent Van Gogh, The Starry Night, 1889
