 I. What I Need to Know?
In the middle of the 18th century, Neoclassicism was born out of rejection of the
Rococo and late Baroque styles. Romanticism began in the same era, but its approach
had to do with the modern or new rather than the traditional. Their influences today
were highly visible through the style of paintings, sculptures, and other artworks
adapted by the well-known artists internationally and also by some of our National
Artists. Some of the existing architectural structures convey the traits and
characteristics of such periods. You are going to trace the art history and
characteristics of Neoclassicism and Romanticism along with various artists that made
names for each period. Painting, sculpting, and modeling are the processes and
products that you will make for this unit.
