Angelo Barabino was an Italian painter, divisionist-symbolist, exponent of the social current, friend and pupil of Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo.
In Barabino's work we encounter realistic and symbolic instances applied to not infrequently social-oriented themes, always supported by a technical quality that was reworked on Pellizza with wholly original results.
Yvonne Canu was a French painter and neo-impressionist who used pointillism and divisionism in her work. She studied at the Ecole des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and the Académie de la Grand Chaumiere.
Yvonne Canu's paintings were mainly landscapes and still lifes. Her works displayed a meticulous attention to detail and an emphasis on capturing the effects of light and colour. Using pointillism, she achieved a luminous quality in her paintings, with colours optically blending into one another when viewed from a distance.
Albert Dubois-Pillet was a French Neo-Impressionist painter and army officer. He played an important role in founding the Société des Artistes Indépendants and was one of the first artists to embrace Pointillism.
Albert Dubois-Pieu's paintings often depicted landscapes, seascapes and city scenes, conveying the effects of light and atmosphere with meticulous attention to detail. His use of vivid and contrasting pointillistic colours created a sense of depth, brightness and optical blending when viewed from a distance.
Dubois-Pieu was influenced by the theories of colour and light of Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, two prominent figures in the Neo-Impressionist movement. He participated in several exhibitions with these artists and other members of the movement, contributing to the dissemination and appreciation of Neo-Impressionism.
Alfred William (Willy) Finch was a ceramist and painter in the pointillist and Neo-Impressionist style. Born in Brussels to British parents, he spent most of his creative life in Finland. In 1883 he became a founding member of Les XX, a group of twenty Belgian painters, designers and sculptors, who rebelled against the prevailing artistic standards and outmoded academism. He was impressed by the works of Georges Seurat and Paul Signac and changed his own painting style from a more realistic approach into a pointillistic style. In the following years, Finch became one of the leading representatives of his style in Belgium, along with Théo van Rysselberghe. During the early 1890s Finch switched careers from painting to pottery, upon the realization that he couldn't make a living by painting. In 1897, invited by count Louis Sparre, Finch moved to Porvoo, Finland, to head the Iris ceramics factory, and influenced the development of the local Jugendstil. After the factory was closed, Finch resumed his painting career.

Elected to the Académie des Beaux-Arts in 1917, he is known for his early 1920s work on the walls of the Salle de l'Assemblée générale, where the members of the Conseil d'État meet in the Palais-Royal in Paris. Other notable institutions that have featured his Post-Impressionist paintings in their halls through public procurement include the Élysée Palace, Sorbonne, Hôtel de Ville de Paris, Palais de Justice de Paris, as well as Capitole de Toulouse, although the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Bordeaux and Musée des Augustins also have sizeable public collections.
Nikolai Vasilievich Mescherin (Russian: Николай Васильевич Мещерин) was a Russian artist and entrepreneur born on February 28, 1864, in Moscow, and died on October 22, 1916, in Meshcherino, Russia. Known primarily for his landscape paintings, Mescherin initially embraced Impressionism, later experimenting with Pointillism, a technique developed by French Neo-Impressionists. His lyrical landscapes, often rendered in pastel, capture the serene beauty of Central Russia.
Mescherin was also a co-owner of the Moscow Danilovskaya Manufactory, balancing his industrial pursuits with his artistic endeavors. His works are significant for their emotional depth and technical precision, distinguishing him in the Russian art scene of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Some of his notable works are housed in the Museum of Russian Impressionism in Moscow, where they continue to attract admiration from art enthusiasts and collectors.

Charles Johann Palmié was a German painter, one of the pioneers of German Modernism and Neo-Impressionism.
He studied at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts, traveled and worked extensively, specializing in landscapes. In 1901 Palmie and his artist wife opened an artists' hotel in Kalmunz, Germany. Soon an entire colony of artists formed there, numbering up to forty people, many of whom lived there permanently. After Wassily Kandinsky and Gabriele Münter visited the hotel in the summer of 1903, the Kalmunz colony became the talk of the art world.
Impressed by the works of Claude Monet, the artist traveled to France in 1905, where a meeting with the master himself played a decisive role in the further direction of Palmie's work. In France, he spent much time studying Neo-Impressionism, pointillism and monochrome painting, and created many landscapes.
In 1909 Palmie, along with Vasily Kandinsky, Alexei Jawlensky, Gabriele Münter and others, became one of the founders of the Association of New Artists of Munich (Neue Künstlervereinigung München or NKVM), an expressionist art group in Munich. This group later evolved into Der Blaue Reiter ("The Blue Rider"), but without Palmie's participation.
Jean Puy was a French painter associated with the Fauvist movement, known for his colourful and colourful works.
Jean Puy's early work was influenced by Impressionism, but he later adopted the bold and expressive use of colour characteristic of Fauvism. Inspired by artists such as Henri Matisse and André Derain, Puy developed a unique style that emphasised the emotional and decorative qualities of colour.
Puig's paintings often depicted landscapes, still lifes and scenes of everyday life. He was particularly interested in conveying the effects of light and colour in his works, using intense and unnatural colours to show mood and expression.
During his career, Puig exhibited at the Salon d'Autumn and the Salon des Artistes Indépendants, which were important exhibitions of avant-garde art in Paris.
