Impressionism and Post-Impressionism — Sarah Ciacci.
​
Impressionism and Post-Impressionism are two of the most popular movements in the story of art, with famous Impressionists such as Monet, Renoir, Degas and Cezanne and a younger generation of Post-Impressionists including Seurat, Gaugin and Van Gogh. Not only are their stories fascinating, their art diverse and their ideas challenging, but a good understanding of these key artists helps explain many of the artistic changes that came after them.
