Impressionism revolutionized the nature of European painting, giving a new importance to the individual vision, so that artists painted what they saw and felt. But what did their successors make of this new emancipation? Where did it all lead? This is the question to which Thomas Parson and Iain Gale have addressed themselves in this book which reveals what is in effect one of the most exciting periods in the history of modern painting. The 405 illustrations, many of which will be unfamiliar to the general reader, present a unique and revealing pictorial record of a movement which has come to be called Post-Impressionism.
