Post impressionism is the term coined by the British artist Robert Fry in 1910 to describe the development of French art since Manet. Fry used the term when he organized the 1910 exhibition Manet and the Post-Impressionists. Post-Impressionists extended Impressionism and they continued using vivid colors, thick paint, and real-life subject matter, and they were more inclined to emphasize geometric forms, to distort form for expressive effect, and to use unnatural color.
