The Good Rev is correct it's called Post-Romantic.

The order of the periods are

Medieval
Renaissance
Baroque
Classical
Romantic
Post-Romantic
Modern
Contemporary


It's only called Impressionism in France. Since it started around the same time, as the more commonly know Impressionism period in art. Everywhere else it's known as Post-Romantic. Debussy was the first in France.
