What This Module is About

You’ll learn more about Neoclassical and Romantic works in this module. Our
influences today were widely noticeable in the style of paintings, sculptures, and
other works of art adapted globally by the well-known artists and some of our
national artists as well. Some of the existing architectural structures convey the
characteristics and traits of those periods.

Neoclassicism was born in the mid-eighteenth century out of rejection of the

Rococo and late Baroque styles. Romanticism started in the same period, but rather
than conventional, its philosophy had to do with the modern or the new.

You are going to follow the art history and characteristics of Neoclassicism
and Romanticism together with specific artists who made names for every period

Painting, sculpting and designing are the methods and procedures and items
that you will make for this module.

READ ME!
Neoclassicism and Romanticism were the movements that spread in Western
Europe and the United States during the Rococo era, lasting roughly from the late
18th to the 19th centuries.
Neoclassicism, 1780-1840
In decorative and visual arts the Western trend was called Neoclassicism. It
also refers to literature, theater, music and architecture which were inspired by
Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome’s classical art and culture.
This is now known as the Age of Enlightenment. The revived interest in Greek
and Roman classics has brought on the art form in this time period.
Neoclassical works of art such as paintings, sculptures and architecture
typically depicted Roman history that exalted the heroes of Roman times.
Romanticism, 1800- 1810s
Romanticism was a trend in which Neoclassical Era artists sought to break
new ground with both the delicate and stormy presentation of sentiment. They also
promoted a variety of distinguishing concepts, such as historical ambition, super-
natural elements, social justice and nature.
Landscape painting was also made more popular because of the romantic
adoration of nature by the inhabitants.
Romanticism was a reaction to the neoclassical pieces' historical,
contemplative nature.

Summary

The classical revival, also known as neoclassicism, refers to movements in

the arts which draw inspiration from ancient Greece and Rome's "classical" art and
culture. The height of Neoclassicism coincided with the Enlightenment era of the
18th century, and went on into the early 19th century.

Romantic art focused on all sorts of thoughts, feelings, and moods like faith,
creativity, mystery, and fervor. The subject matter was widely diverse, including
landscapes, culture, revolt, and elegance in harmony. The brushwork was looser and
less detailed for romantic art.
