The Symbolist Movement: To Make the Invisible Visible
Symbolism is always confusing because we use the word to refer to the study of symbols or iconography in art works, but it also refers to a specific movement. Usually grouped with the other post-impressionist movements, symbolism emerged at just about the same time as impressionism, so it is not entirely accurate to call it "post" impressionist. Nonetheless, much of the symbolist movement (at least in the visual arts) does take shape as a response to impressionism.
