Description
The Romantic movement in art, with its emphasis on emotion, imagination and sensitivity to nature, was at its height from the late-eighteenth to the mid-nineteenth century. At the heart of the book is the art itself: more than 200 representative paintings, drawings, woodcuts, sculptures and collages drawn from major collections around the world and beautifully reproduced in color, each with an individual commentary.
