The Romantic Period Quiz

Don’t be fooled by the name, the Romantic Period of art history was not all about love and compassion. That was only a small part of it. The true essence of Romantic art was how it heightened emotion and drama so that it could capture more than just the physical world.

Emotion really was the key to this time. Artists from all walks of life wanted their specific crafts to speak to the human heart rather than the brain. Some Romantic works are remembered as quintessential art pieces of human history. There are other pieces from this time that have grown a bit more obscure over time. Art history was irrevocably changed in the Romantic Period, and that was thanks to the efforts of many individuals.

There were certainly some figures who dominated this time as happens with every artistic age. Similarly, as with all other periods of art history, people of all skill levels helped to define what the Romantic Period would be known for. Some later artists might have considered Romantics to have been devoid of technical finesse. That is a disservice to how much thought and craft went into their work.
