Pages 10 & 11: Neo-Classical/Romanticism Research

Key Points of Neo-Classicism:-
- Shows man in a more realistic, and less idealistic way.
- Generally a bit darker.
- Everything is heavier and more realistic.
- Again, very much recreating Greek and Roman art.
- Very busy scenes.
- Mid-18th century to early-19th century. 1750-1820.

Key Points of Romanticism:-
- Started at the end of the 18th century. Peaked approx. 1800-1850.
- More magically and spiritually themed.
- Slightly less realistic, as it works into the more mystical.
- Very emotive and dreamy.
