Description: | Signed: yes Description: This atmospheric rendition corresponds to the criteria of the Romantic movement. The Romantic artists expressed their feelings in creations which showed their fondness for dreams, evasion, exoticism or the past. Mystery is also present, as well as the fantastic. Romanticism went against the rigidity of reason and the classic ideals of Neoclassicism, thus allowing painters to express their sensitivity. Here the viewer is plunged towards a mysterious past embodied by the medieval guard holding his halberd and the ruined castle. The darkness emphasises the secrecy of the moment. | Subjects: | landscape; figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Le Prince, Charles Edouard, Baron de Crespy (French artist, 1784-after 1850) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8929... | Go to resource |
