Around the 1890s in France, impressionism was followed by post-impressionism, which places greater emphasis on the form, structure and content of the painting.

Following the Impressionists and the Post-Impressionists came Fauvism, often considered the first ""modern"" genre of art.

His own beliefs, and in some cases the psychology behind his work, were also influenced by philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer and poet Stéphane Mallarmé.
