Romanticism Art

I've been researching this Romanticism art and it has caught my attention. This type of art is very interesting because it is painted almost right out of the imagination of a person. Almost like something you would see in a dream. It is imaginative and dreamy. I see lots of animals, vibrant colors, trees, mountains, water, and humans. This art was a critique of the Industrial Revolution (I.R.) because the I.R. was time of machines, order, and work. Romanticism art was the oposite of that since it emphasized imagination, nature, and individualism. Below is an example of Romanticism art called, Horse Frightened by a Lion. As you can see, the picture depicts a horse runnning away from something. Theres some bushes and trees in the backround. It looks as if it just came out of someone's mind.

I also looked at some art that came before Romanticism which was NeoClassicism. This art was heavily influenced by Greek and Roman art. It depicted idols, gods, heroes, royalty, and things of that manner. It was not as colorful as Romanticism nor as imaginative but it perhaps had more meaning than it. The below painting is a famous French painting that is an example of Neoclassicism. You see royalty and Greek style architecture in the backround.
