The artwork comprises numerous individuals who share their ideas and portray different

messages in paintings, drawings, photographs, and sculptures. Paul Gauguin, Paul Cezanne, and

Claude Monet are some artists who have dominated. The artists use different colors, textures,

techniques, and mediums to depict their subject matter.

Tahitian Landscape

When he visited Tahiti in 1981, Tahitian landscape was done by Eugene Henri Paul

Gauguin to explore new motifs he could employ in his artwork.

The tropical foliage and uncomplicated island life are shown in this vibrant photograph.

The majority of the components in the scene are focused on the painting's backdrop. The

foreground is sparse, yet the walkway and elongated palms draw the viewer's gaze upwards to

the mountain in the background.

Gauguin creates a flat scene by combining simple regions of brilliant color with darker

contours.

The mountains, sky, and clouds are all visible, but most details have been eliminated or

abstracted. The vegetation and animals are simplified and just hinted at in certain places.

Gauguin has caught the daily routines of island life amid the picture. A hat-wearing guy goes

along the route, a weight slung across his shoulders, as a lone dog scans the area.

Impression, Soleil Levant (Rising Sun)

The artwork was created by Claude Oscar Monet in 1872 and exhibited in 1974.

Monet uses oil on the canvas to depict his artwork. Monet's choice of color encompasses

the morning in all its fleeting glory, and his symphony of blues and oranges does it admirably.

Monet's use of bright orange for the sun implies its warmth, and such a brilliant hue contrasts

sharply with the calm blues of what must have been a chilly morning. Its shade, more than the

unintelligible figures at the foreground of the picture, vibrates strongly against the rest of the

immobile tableau, and it gives the work life.

Here, the docks are shown in their natural setting, focusing on the sun's impact on the

water. Impressions: Sunrise is among Monet's earliest and most significant works because of its

association with the Impressionist movement, of which he was a key member. At the time,

Monet's emerging style preferred painting outdoors and in one session to capture an overall

initial impression of a location. Monet should have finished Impression: Sunrise in a single

sitting.

The rendering of color and light was more critical to impressionists than exhaustive detail

in their work. A new and vibrant movement resulted from hurried brushstrokes and outdoor

paintings, which impressed and repulsed viewers equally.

The fast brush strokes used by Monet in Impression: Sunrise captures the sun's glare on the

water and the water's ebb and flow concerning the rest of the picture. Much to Monet's water-

based works, this painting begins in the vastness of water to create a sense of endlessness in its

subject matter.

Mont Sainte-Victoire

Paul Cezanne created the image between 1902 and 1906.

Richer greens and blues are utilized in his artwork. The color is used to create mood and

depicts the depth of things. The painting shows the organic terrain using an intriguing usage of

geometric elements. The hill behind the château, as well as the hills further away, are carved out

of blocks of color, with the primary blue tones broken up by warmer patches of russet and ochre.

Each of these blocks and strokes comprises an enormous range of subtly distinct colors within

the blue-green pattern. The result is kaleidoscopic while being soothing and tranquil.

Cubism was born as a result of this concentration on geometric shapes. Without

sacrificing Impressionism's visual reality, he uses simpler forms to bring order and clarity to

nature. Painting the same subject repeatedly helps to experiment with how color and light

interact in various situations. It also enables one to delve deeply into a particular topic. Cézanne,

therefore, made use of drawing the same image several times, just as Monet did.
