The period from 1750 to the end of the 19th century was a succession of decisive events. Industrialization in England, the French Revolution, Napoleon, and the birth of the German and Italian states are some of the milestones that marked this eventful history. All of these events were reflected in European painting, from the rediscovery of Antiquity by Neoclassicism to Romanticism and its various manifestations in different countries, and finally to Realism, which introduced entirely new subjects into art. With over 500 illustrations, this book offers a panorama of these styles and some of the other artistic movements of this exciting period.
