IV. ACTIVITIES:
Neo-Classicism and Romanticism 1740-1850
Art forms of the Neoclassic Period were produced in the late 18th century. These artworks are influenced by
Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. Some of the famous artists if the Neoclassic Period are J.A.D. Ingres,
Jacques-Louis David, Robert Smirke, Robert Adam, Antonio Canova, Jean-Antoine Houdon, and Bertel
Thorvaldsen. Neoclassic style is highly visible in paintings, sculptures, and architecture of the 18th century.

Romanticism highly contrasts Neoclassicism. It is a reaction to the classical and contemplative nature of
Neoclassical pieces. It seeks modernism and expresses emotion through art. Famous artists in this era
were Jean Louis Théodore Géricault, Eugène Delacroiz, Francisco Goya, François Rude, and Antoine-
Louis Barye. Landscape painting became more popular due to the peoples’ romantic adoration of nature.
Théodore Rousseau and Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot led the Romantic landscape painting in France.

Gothic Revival architectural movement began in the late 1740s in England. It became widely used for
churches and civic buildings throughout the West, especially in Great Britain and United States.

Neoclassicism and Romanticism contrast with each other. They both show distinct characteristics that can
be seen through the artworks.

Neoclassicism versus Romanticism

Neoclassicism: REASON Romanticism: PASSION
Nature is defined as human nature Nature is defined as natural environment (woods,
mountains, etc.)
Society is more important than the individual The individual is more important than society
Imitation Originality
Tradition Experimentation
Rules and order Freedom
Mechanical form (imposed from outside) Organic form (growing from inside)
Logic Intuition
Reason Imagination, Emotion
Attempted objectivity Accepted subjectivity
Town or cultivated landscape Country, preferably untouched nature

 Constraint Spontaneity
Conformity Independence, Rebellion
Cultivated, formal, social The primitive becomes focus

It is clear that Neoclassicism and Romanticism differ from each other, but they both inspire people through
the art pieces which great artists have done. A painting expresses ideas and educates us through the
message the image has.
