The New Rome. Castel Sant'Angelo — Sylvester Shchedrin

Romanticism

What to look for

Romanticism: Neoclassicism is cool and linear; Romanticism is turbulent and colourful. Realism, which followed, replaced drama with ordinary life.

Sylvester Feodosiyevich Shchedrin (13 February 1791 – 8 November 1830) was a Russian landscape painter. Wikipedia
