European artists moved away from academic traditions toward modern approaches, beginning with Realism and Impressionism, then expanding into Post-Impressionism, Symbolism, and early modernism. These works capture changing views of everyday life, light, emotion, and perception as Europe responded to industrialization, urban growth, and social change.
