Romanticism is multifaceted, and a wide range of nostalgic,
emotional, and exotic concerns were expressed in such styles and
movements as the Gothic Revival, Classical Revival, Orientalism,
and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Some movements were regional
and subject-specific, such as the Hudson River School of landscape
painting in the United States and the German Nazarene movement,
which focused primarily on religious art in Rome. The movements
range across Western Europe and include the United States. This
dictionary will provide a fuller historical context for Romanticism
and enable the reader to identify major trends and explore artists
of the period. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of
Romantic Art and Architecture contains a chronology, an
introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section
has over 300 cross-referenced entries on major artists of the
romantic era as well as entries on related art movements, styles,
aesthetic philosophies, and philosophers. This book is an excellent
resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more
about Romantic art.
