Romanticism emerged in the late C18th and early C19th in reaction to academic art's rigidity and the Enlightenment's cerebral outlook, with artists communicating their emotional response to the world. Artists continue to create works that engage with the natural world’s beauty through works which engender heightened responses or draw attention to smaller details, stir awe, or even transcendental experience.
