Moon's mirror

Description of the picture

Romanticism! - It is a direction in art, when an extraordinary person gets into an unusual life situation. The opposite of it is realism - when an ordinary person is in real life conditions. In painting, it is expressed in beautiful, epic landscapes and historical paintings with heroic pathos. Romantics were: Delacroix, Gaspard Friedrich, Turner and Aivazovsky, and partly Bryullov.
In this case, an extraordinary person is an artist, and unusual conditions are special states of nature, full moon, rainbow, thunderstorm, and storm. This is all fleeting and difficult, so a convinced realist does not tackle such things. Romantics usually paint a picture according to the idea, based on knowledge, experience and a sense of beauty.
