Romanticism (also known as the Romantic movement or Romantic era) was an artistic and intellectual movement that originated in Europe towards the end of the 18th century. In most parts of Europe, it was at its peak from approximately 1800 to 1850. Romanticism was characterized by its emphasis on emotion and individualism as well as glorification of the past and nature, preferring the medieval to the classical. Featuring artists such as Jacques Louis David, Antoine-Jean Gros, Theodore Gericault, Eugene Delacroix, Francisco Goya, John Constable, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, J. M. W. Turner and Caspar David Friedrich.
