Happy birthday, Symbolism!
On 9/18/1886, the 𝘚𝘺𝘮𝘣𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘰 was placed in the French newspaper 𝘓𝘦 𝘍𝘪𝘨𝘢𝘳𝘰 by a Greek-born poet Jean Moréas, announcing the movement's hostility to "plain meanings, declamations, false sentimentality and matter-of-fact description" and intent to "clothe the Ideal in a perceptible form".

The pentagram is used in Freemasonry, and elsewhere, as emblematic of brotherly love, interlaced, and without beginning or end.
The pentagram can be drawn with one continuous stroke, returning to the point of beginning, without the need to retrace any line.

"Tamed," Marian Wawrzeniecki, 1910.
An archaeologist, historian, ethnographer, and only incidentally a painter, Warsaw-born Wawrzeniecki (1863-1943) was a noted eccentric and a bit of a fraud.
From an artistic viewpoint, he had a very individual style; he'd had some training in art but abandoned the formal style he'd been taught and instead embraced his own approach. While classified as a Symbolist painter, he was really more of a Modernist, painting solely to achieve his own vision.
His work reflects Slavic folklore and mythology, often depicting witches and pagan gods, and he's considered a significant figure in the rise of Slavic neopaganism. Many of his works can be taken in multiple ways; this could be an illustration of a legend, or a symbol of humanity conquering nature or evil.
He did some fairly important work as an archaeologist, but also published transcriptions of assorted ancient and medieval documents that historians have since figured out he forged. Exactly why he did that is unknown.
From the National Museum in Warsaw.

"The Kiss," Edvard Munch, 1892.
Munch (1863-1944), the great Symbolist/Expressionist painter, remains the best-known Norwegian artist ever.
He had many health problems during his life, and had his heart broken more times than anyone cares to think about, so he was prone to fits of depression. A friend suggested he paint his mental and emotional states, which gave birth to his signature style.
This painting was a part of a cycle called "The Frieze of Life" that depicted, as he put it, "the battle between men and women that is called love" and showed scenes of attraction, courtship, realization, and disillusionment. This is obviously from the more positive parts of the cycle, but with hints of darkness. Their kiss is passionate, yet the colors are cool and the billowing curtain suggests a chilly breeze.
From the Nasjonalmuseet, Oslo.
