Impressionism and Post-impressionism.

      

 Post impressionism and Impressionism are two different style art that was used to focus on various things. Impressionism showed the real world and the beauty behind that. Artwork in impressionism is usually painted outdoors, showing nature. The colors are usually mixed together. They used thin brush strokes and open composition. The work of impressionism showed what humans see, its based on observations.
        Post Impressionism was different because even though they used vivid colors, their work was against impressionism. They wanted to show deeper value and meaning than just showing nature. So in a way, it is almost the opposite of Impressionism.

  European colonization changes art in this time period because they started to value art more and adding more details in their art work. Their art started having a variation of qualities and details.
