Symbolism Art
Symbolism Art Movement
Symbolism is an art style developed in the late 19th century and is characterized by the incorporation of symbols and ideas, usually spiritual or mystical in nature, which represent the inner life of people.
Traditional pictorial depictions are replaced or contrasted by surfaces decoratively embellished with figures and design elements.
This painting by Edvard Munch - called Scream, typifies this art form.
