Romanticism as an artistic epoch lasted roughly from 1790 to 1850 and placed emphasis on emotion and on a new perception of nature, society, and the individual. Landscapes, religious motifs, and intimate scenes reflected a longing for harmony, spirituality, and inner orientation. It understood itself as a counter-movement to the Enlightenment.
Important artists such as Caspar David Friedrich and Carl Gustav Carus in Germany, and William Turner in England, expressed these ideas particularly through landscapes, depictions of ruins, and mystical scenes. Through clear visual language and refined composition, they redefined the relationship between humanity and the world.
Today, works from this period are highly sought-after collectors’ pieces. Their distinctive expressive power, historical significance, and rarity regularly lead to outstanding results on the auction market.
