Romanticism in Art Beginning in the late 18th century and lasting until the middle of the 19th century a new Romantic attitude began to characterize culture and many art works in Western civilization. It started as an artistic and intellectual movement that emphasized a revulsion against established values (social order and religion). Instead Romanticism exalted individualism, irrationalism, imagination, emotions and nature, it valued emotion over reason and senses over intellect. These artists and philosophers of the time were in revolt against the existing social order and they favored the revival of potentially unlimited number of artistic styles (basically anything that aroused their senses or imagination).

Romanticism in ArtBeginning in the late 18th century and lasting

until the middle of the 19th century a new Romantic attitude began to characterize culture

and many art works in Western civilization. It started as an artistic and intellectual movement that emphasized a revulsion against established

values (social order and religion). Instead Romanticism exalted individualism,

irrationalism, imagination, emotions and nature, it valued emotion over reason and senses over intellect. These artists and philosophers of the time were in revolt against the existing social

order and they favored the revival of potentially unlimited number of artistic styles (basically

anything that aroused their senses or imagination).

Characteristics

• Artists chose contemporary, literary, social criticism, and historical subject matters.

• Paintings featured loose brushwork, strong colors, powerful contrasts of dark and light, and expressive poises and gestures. What previously studied

period does this sound like?

Romanticism in Spain

One of the leading artists in Spain was Francisco Goya y Lucientes.

His work started out like portraits and fantasy pictures in the Rococo style.

His later work was darker, freer, and more dramatic.

Romanticism in Spain

Goya

As court painter, he painted portraits of royalty and other aristocrats. His style was realistic yet possessed a quality that expressed his personal feelings

about the subjects.

He later took on more social issues and showed dramatizations of war.

A Different View of Romantic Art

Landscape Painting

Much of romantic landscape painting consists of pastoral scenes or settings that showcase the

immense quality of nature. Human figures often served more as decoration than the focus in these

types of paintings. The same can be said of buildings and any sort of man-made structure.
