What to look for

Impressionism: Realism, just before, paints on dark grounds with solid forms; Post-Impressionism, just after, keeps the bright colour but adds firm outlines, built structure or symbolic colour.

Frederick McCubbin (25 February 1855 – 20 December 1917) was an Australian artist, art teacher and prominent member of the Heidelberg School art movement, also known as Australian impressionism. Wikipedia
