  1. Romantic Art

  2. Romanticism:Beginning with the late 18th to the mid-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). Romanticism exalted individualism, subjectivism, irrationalism, imagination, emotions and nature - emotion over reason and senses over intellect. Since they were in revolt against the orders, they favored the revival of potentially unlimited number of styles (anything that aroused them).Romantic artists investigated human nature and personality, the folk culture, the national and ethnic origins, the medieval era, the exotic, the remote, the mysterious, the occult, the diseased, and even satanic. The Romantic artist had a role of an ultimate egoistic creator, with the spirit above strict formal rules and traditional procedures. The Romantic artist had imagination as a gateway to transcendent experience and spiritual truth.

Eugene Delacroix, The Death of Sardanapalus, 1828, 12’10”x16’3” Its dominant feature is the bed on which a nude prostrates herself and beseeches the apathetic Sardanapalus, who watches as his worldly possessions are destroyed. Sardanapalus ordered his possessions destroyed and concubines murdered before he sets himself on fire, once he learns that he is faced with military defeat.
