Words: Neo-Impressionism
Part of speech: n
Definition: a late 19th-century movement in French painting that sought to improve on impressionism through a systematic approach to form and color, particularly using pointillist technique.
Example: The neo-impressionism of Maximilien Luce and his supporter Robert Bernier, for instance, must be distinguished from that of Seurat and his champion Gustave Kahn, a difference that can be coded especially, but not exclusively, along lines of class and audience.
