In his writings and work, he favored emotional responses to nature over intellectual uses of lines, color, and composition. In 1888 he and Emile Bernard developed a new style called Synthetism. Three groups of Gauguin's symbolist followers--Pont Aven, Les Nabis, and Rose + Croix pursued and extended the Synthetist vision.
