Impressionist art, in its striking focus on a surrounding influence or environment and the elusively generally pleasant movement of light and air, such as Monet 's ethereal "Vetheuil in the Fog" (1879), was using new methods, going against everything taught as traditional and proper by the Salon command. We see artists such as Manet challenging artistic traditions with vigor confrontation in "Le déjeuner sur l 'herbe" (1863), and impressions of modern middle-class life, rather than historical figures, as we see in Cassett 's "At the Opera" (1880). Impressionists emphasized instants in time in the lives of the middle-class people, rather than the classical focus on images of elitism. The new ideas or methods beliefs and styles of the Impressionists, along with their perseverance in the face of important disapprobation and opposition, inspired new movements that happened at the same time went down from and react against Impressionist techniques, giving rise to many exciting modern artistic styles.
Post-Impressionism, for example, without any delay calls to mind favorites of mine, such as Van Gogh 's beloved "Starry Night" (1889) and "The Bedroom" (1889). One can see the effect of Impressionism in the brush strokes, yet Post-Impressionism took its own direction, with its artists rather using beautiful, very bright and strong color in their paintings and permeating them with the emotions with the artist. Post-Impressionist is a considered most likely movement of mine, as it is

Peter Paul Rubens is one of my favorite painters, he opened the Baroque style. Rubens was the first European Baroque painter; he was representative of the early Baroque painting. From a viewer’s point of view, people can see that his paintings are colorful, beautiful composition, and all his paintings have story. Rubens thinks that color is just important as the emotion and acting, so he chose the moment when David taken his swords is about to cut the head of his adversary, the acting itself. The style that Rubens used was a very good use of color, he emphasizing the movement; people can see the acting that David is taking.

style. In the years of 1883-1885, most of his paintings had a “darkened pallet” with monochromatic colors (67). Art pieces like Loom, which was painted in 1884, show the monochromatic style by being made up of only light browns and dark browns. It wasn’t until 1886 that he decided to lighten his color pallet (114). His reasoning for this was because it “would be more expressive than the darker pallet” (115).
Art is expressed in many ways, such as writing, music, sculptures, paintings, and more. Vincent van Gogh 's "Starry Night" is known around the world. Van Gogh 's oil painting was completed when he was institutionalized in a mental asylum. He painted the dark sky right before the rise of the early morning sun. Gogh used shades of
The impressionism movement has proven to be a very important time in history. It influenced the way art is generated and viewed today. The views and techniques utilized during this period have influenced the way individuals currently view the world. Impressionism laid its foundation in the artworld with its innovative ideas and techniques, the desire to rebel against what was recognized as art, as well as with its prominent artists.
In the painting, The Starry Night (1889) by Vincent van Gogh he also gives a perspective of a town and the swirly designs in the night sky (Holub and Bucks 29). Van Gogh wants to also show the observer the town on a night filled with starts in an abstract way that may seem happy and positive. The book Hatchet by Gary Paulsen and the painting The Starry Night (1889) by Vincent Van Gogh compare because of how the author/artist convey the perspective on how one should look at the
The Starry Night is an oil painting by Vincent van Gogh, painted in June 1889, in asylum room at Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Like many other artist, Van Gogh’s artistic inclinations was based on an extremely popular subject in late-nineteenth, which is Landscapes. Although Van Gogh enjoy seeing farmers working on the countryside, his creations was rather on darker color side. But after he encountered works from the Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist in Paris, since then he had been incorporated their brighter color and style in his work, created his personal unique style, Post-Impressionism and carried over through the end of his life. On the other hand, Ginny Marsh’s Bowl was created in 2010.

It is widely known that Van Gogh was not the most stable person mentally, and many thought that it was depicted in his many paintings. Vincent Van Gogh through his painting The Starry Night has used color, layout, and symbolism to convey his mental illness. Vincent Van Gogh’s The Starry Night is without a doubt an expressive and captivating artwork. The painting depicts a compact village that is completely illuminated, save for the prominent church in the middle of the town.
Van Gogh painted this piece in 1889 while he was in Saint Rémy seeking treatment in a mental asylum. Interestingly enough, he painted this piece from his memory and it was supposed to have been based on a constellation arrangement he had seen earlier on in the night sky of Provence. Starry Night is perhaps one of his most famous and yet most elusive works. The first thing that I noticed was the overwhelming night sky, which takes up most of the background.
Searching for a painting that really spoke to me was hard, I was searching for quite a while, until I found Bedroom in Arles. There are many things in this painting that would catch a viewer 's eye; the reason the painting caught my eye was because it was much more vibrant and colorful that all the other artworks I saw, that is why it attracted me. “Bedroom in Arles created” in 1888 by the word renowned artist Vincent Van Gogh was painted to represent himself, who he was as a person, and the life he lived. That is what Van Gogh is trying to convey to the viewer in this painting, he did this with the use of vibrant colors, the thick brushstrokes used, the many different and odd parts of this painting, and the texture of the items in the painting. Van Gogh’s use of color, and his bold color choices is what really attracted me to this painting, it stood out like a sore thumb from all the other paintings.
Starry Night and The Scream are two completely different types of artwork made by two different artists. Vincent Van Gogh and Edvard Munch being those artists surely makes these pieces of art highly valuable and treasured. Starry Night was made by Van Gogh very late into his career and The Scream was made by Edvard Munch in his mid-career. Even though these two pieces of artwork are made by different people during different times of their career, these paintings look and have very similar aspects. Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh and The Scream by Edvard Munch both have similar formal elements including color, line, form, light, shape, texture, composition, etc. to depict a deeper meaning of the artists emotions of depression and loneliness.
In the 18th century, another one of the greatest artist of all time, Vincent Van Gogh illustrated a very personal painting. The Starry Night is now one of the most widely known paintings in the world, but the story and meaning is not. Both artist used dark and grim themes when it came to their creations, and that is what draws the public to them. In today 's society we are able to relate to the deeper and more mentally touching symbols of these pieces of art. Andrew Wyeth’s painting, Christina’s World shows a young woman in a empty field looking up at a grim farmhouse on a rustic summer day.
