Expressionism/Postimpressionism was an art movement at the end of the 19th century where artists rejected representational styles and began making choices about brush strokes and compositions rather than focusing on realism. Key artists included Edvard Munch, whose 1893 work The Scream portrayed human anxiety and emotion, Van Gogh, whose 1889 work Van Gogh's Room at Arles showed his expressive style, and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, whose 1892 painting At the Moulin Rouge captured scenes of nightlife in Paris.
