During the Romantic period, significant events included the publication of key literary works like William Wordsworth's "Lyrical Ballads" in 1798, the French Revolution from 1789-1799, and the rise of nationalist movements in Europe. This era also saw the emergence of significant artistic trends in painting and music, such as the works of Eugene Delacroix and Ludwig van Beethoven.
Romanticism was a period of intellectual, literary and artistic ideals. Artwork seemed to focus more on the aesthetically pleasing and emotional aspects of a work. Horses were often painted as a symbol for romanticism because they were so much more powerful and yet more majestic than man. Literature such as Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is considered romantic. Romantic literature has many Gothic elements and often feature an anti-hero (Byronic hero if you're familiar with the term). Intellectually, romanticism had a certain emphasis on the sublime. This can be read in Edmund Burke's Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful. This stated that the sublime is a paradoxical feeling such as delight and terror at the same time. Another thing that came out of romanticism is an emphasis on something known as orientalism which basically says that people of Africa and other "primitive" regions of the Earth could give better insight into the emotionally pleasing aspects of life than could those enveloped in society. Thus, artists such as Delacroix traveled to Africa. Finally, romanticism helped to portray nationalism as can be seen in Antoine-Jean Gros' Bataille D'Aboukir and Delacroix's liberty leading the people. Antoine Gros, thought widely considered a neoclassical painter, was the favorite painter of Napoleon Bonaparte because of his ability to emotionally connect his paintings with Napoleon and his audience. A feat Jacque-Louis David could not accomplish as a stronger neoclassical painter. The romantic period brought many powerful works of art.
