Romanticism
An art style from the 1800s that focused on emotion, nature, and the power of the individual.
What is it?
Romanticism was an art movement that started in Europe around 1800. Romantic artists painted dramatic scenes of nature — storms, mountains, shipwrecks. They wanted to make you feel awe and wonder. They also painted historical events and exotic places. J.M.W. Turner was a Romantic painter. His painting of a ship at sea shows the power of nature, a key Romantic theme. Winterhalter also painted in the Romantic style, focusing on elegance and beauty in his portraits. The portrait of an elegant lady by Winterhalter is a Romantic work because it emphasizes the lady's grace and the beauty of her surroundings.
Why it matters
Romanticism changed art by putting feelings first. It was a reaction against the order and rules of the previous style, Neoclassicism.
