Romanticism (or the Romantic era/Period) was an artistic, literary, and intellectual movement that originated in the second half of the 18th century in Europe and strengthened in reaction to the Industrial Revolution. It was embodied most strongly in the visual arts, music, and literature, but had a major impact on historiography, education and natural history.
Artists include J.M.W. Turner, Francisco Goya, Théodore Géricault and Eugène Delacroix.
