👉 Representationist art is a style of painting and sculpture that emerged in France during the late 19th century. It is characterized by an emphasis on the use of light, shadow, and form to convey complex symbolic ideas and emotions. This art form often includes elements such as chiaroscuro (light and dark contrasts), perspective, and abstraction. The term "representationist" refers to the idea that this style was primarily concerned with representing the world through its visual representations rather than depicting it directly.
