Governments, institutions, and people have utilized both genres of art to delivermessages.
Idealism and clarity were important to Neoclassical painting. It makes use of only a
few colors and has sharply defined outlines. Artists emphasized the sense of passion
and individualism in works of art created during the Romantic era (McCoy, n.d.).
In terms of style and qualities, both genres of art are diametrically opposed. While
both styles are efficient in expressing a work of art's objective message(s), I believe
Romantic art is superior when it comes to effectively communicating a message. My
rationale is that Romantic art uses human emotion to express a message, whereas
Neoclassical art is controlled. Additional reason I believe Romantic art is superior at
conveying a message is that the paintings are more passionate and intense, making
them more relevant to the audience and simpler to comprehend.
The understanding and acceptance of emotions, the celebration of creativity and
imagination, as well as the curiosity in man and idealization of woman are the
features that stand out and help the observer to comprehend the objective of the
image. This makes the piece of art more accessible and understandable.
Liberty Leading the People was a painting by Eugène Delacroix created in 1830 to
commemorate the events of the French Revolution of 1830, wherein King Charles X
was deposed (Zygmont, n.d., 2017).
