1800 - 1880
In Romanticism, violent activity is emphasized in art as bold brush strokes and rich colors take over. The idea was for art to appeal not so much to the mind, but rather to the senses. Not a new concept, but one which was made unique by the artists of the day.
Important Artists (selected list):
- Blake, William
- Constable, John
- Delacroix, Eugene
- Goya y Lucientes, Francisco José de
- Turner, Joseph Mallord William
