    Stand there, right in front of the painting; what do you see? Look closely, very closely and see the paint on the canvas flow through each brush stroke, see the colors expand and blur, and see how the lights play off the soft, vibrant colors. Watch the swirls expand out into an infinite space in time . The paint flies beyond the canvas and the shadows and reflections blur into one. The pinks, blues, reds, yellows, oranges, purples, and browns blend together to create a symphony of colors.…

    Cézanne once said, “Monet is only an eye, but good God, what an eye.” Post-Impressionism is a clear continuation of Impressionism whereby it borrowed many of the techniques from Impressionism but added more formalism and emotion to the works while not being as concerned with the effects of light. I would like to now compare Claude Monet's 1879 painting Vétheuil in the Fog, as an example of Impressionism, and Paul Cézanne's 1904 painting Le Château Noir, as an example of post-Impressionism, to…

    In the left hand side of James Ensor’s ‘Masks Confronting Death’, there is a faint image of a face that has been painted over: a feature that I had not noticed the first time I saw the painting.

I had a similar experience when observing Claude Monet’s ‘Poplars’ in the Fitzwilliam Museum. In the central…
