Romanticism
In the late 1700s, numerous advances in the sciences led to new ideas about how the Earth was formed. A generation of landscape painters came to meet the demand, but also to create landscape art for its own sake. During the first half of the 1800s, landscape art became more realistic, even reaching levels of hyper-realism. In the second half of the century, photography began to have an impact on landscape painting and changed it forever.The movement was used in order to capture a specific purity of imagination of nature and spontaneity. Deep feeling and emotion are the establishments of the movement itself. Throughout the movement, there was a large expansion of the exotic and heroic ideas of the art where you could envision and escape.
