Romanticismo Approximately 1750-1850
o Reaction To Industrial Revolution
o Shift From Age of Enlightenment and Emphasis on Reason
o Hudson River SchoolAlbert Bierstadt, Thomas Cole, Thomas HillFocus on American Landscapes with Romantic Influence
o “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).”
o “Romantic artists were fascinated by the nature, the genius, their passions and inner struggles, their moods, mental potentials, the heroes.”
o “Romantic artist had a role of an ultimate egoistic creator, with the spirit above strict formal rules and traditional procedures. He had imagination as a gateway to transcendent experience and spiritual truth.”
