Romanticism

Eugene DelacroixLiberty Leading the People (1830)

Romanticism was the nineteenth-century

movement that sought to express extremes of

emotion enhanced by virtuoso brushwork and a

brilliant palette.

The most prominent artists of this period were:

Théodore Géricault Eugène Delacroix Francisco Goya

Théodore Géricault’s two most infamous works were…..

The Charging Chasseur (1812)

…and the… Raft of the Medusa (1818-1819)

Eugène Delacroix

Along with Liberty Leading the People (1830) which was displayed previously, he was also well known for his paintings:

The BarqueOf Dante(1822)

and also,

Massacre at Chios (1824)

Unlike the other two artists which were French, Francisco Goya was a Spanish artist which attributed to his difference in style within the same

period.

The Second of May, 1808 (1814-1815)

The Third of May, 1808 (1814-1815)

Naturally his following work after The Second of May, 1808 would be The Third of May, 1808.
