    MOMA - Museum of Modern Art, New York City1889Oil on canvas74 × 92 cm

    It was within this setting that he produced Starry Night (New York, MoMA). It eventually transitioned into the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, where it has remained since 1941. In 1888, he captured the warmth of evening light in The Cafe Terrace on the Place du Forum (Cafe Terrace at night). Another significant piece from that same period is Starry Night Over the Rhone, also painted in 1888.

    Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo1888Oil on canvas81 × 65 cm

    Most strikingly, the painting demonstrates Van Gogh's ambition to depict night not as a void of black, but as a richly colored experience filled with life and possibility. Created during a period of intense creativity for Van Gogh, this painting reflects his fascination with Japanese prints and their use of bold outlines and flattened perspective.

    Harmony in Red

    Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg1908Oil on canvas180 × 220 cm

    Falling squarely within the Post- Impressionist movement – and foreshadowing Matisse’s pivotal role in Fauvism – this piece departs dramatically from traditional representational painting. Instead of striving for photographic realism, Matisse prioritizes the expressive power of color and simplified forms.

    Arranged across a lush, dreamlike landscape blending Tahitian scenery with symbolic elements, the composition deliberately defies traditional Western narrative structure, reading from right to left. Rejecting the fleeting impressions of light favored by earlier Impressionists, he employed Synthetism – a technique prioritizing subjective experience and symbolic meaning over realistic representation.

    The painting captures two men engrossed in their card game, their focused expressions hinting at both strategy and perhaps a deeper contemplation of fortune’s fickle hand.

    Van Gogh intended to convey the honest toil and simple dignity of these laborers, whose hands that reach for the food have also tilled the earth. Despite its somber mood, the painting radiates a powerful humanity that makes it one of Van Gogh's most compelling works.

    Painted during Klimt's early Impressionist phase, this artwork exemplifies his ability to blend realism with atmospheric effects. The loose, expressive brushwork creates a sense of movement and depth, while the play of light and shadow brings the forest scene to life.

    It offers an extraordinarily intimate glimpse into the artist’s private world – a space conceived as a haven, yet imbued with underlying emotional currents.

    Cézanne’s genius lay not in replicating reality but in distilling its essence. Vollard's decision to organize a solo exhibition of Cézanne’s paintings in 1895 proved to be a turning point, bringing the artist’s work to a wider audience and establishing him as a major figure in the art world.

    Kunstmuseum Den Haag, The Hague1908–1910Oil on canvas70 × 99 cm

    Classifying “Avond (Evening): The Red Tree” as purely Post-Impressionist feels somewhat reductive. This pursuit led him to experiment with Pointillism and Fauvism in his earlier works, ultimately leading him to the rigorous principles of Neoplasticism – a style characterized by primary colors, straight lines, and right angles.

    Painted in July 1890, shortly before Van Gogh’s tragic death, this work has long been associated with his final days.

    More than simply depicting a geographical feature, Cézanne sought to capture the essence of Mont Sainte-Victoire – its underlying structure, its relationship to space and light, and ultimately, its emotional resonance. Cézanne spent his later years in the hills overlooking Aix-en-Provence, returning repeatedly to Mont Sainte-Victoire as a source of inspiration.

    Completed in 1892 during his transformative sojourn to Tahiti, this oil on burlap canvas pulsates with a potent blend of Polynesian mythology, Symbolist introspection, and Gauguin’s signature synthetist style. At its heart lies Teha'amana, a young Tahitian girl lying prone on a bed, her gaze directed sideways towards the viewer. Gauguin’s arrival in Tahiti in 1891 marked a pivotal moment, not just for his personal life but also for his artistic development.

How was this list of Post Impressionism paintings ranked?

Each painting is ranked by how widely it is known: the number of Wikipedia language editions with an article on it (Wikidata sitelinks), its place in our catalogue's manual ranking and the visits its page receives. The same painting catalogued several times counts once, and details, copies and studies are left out.
