Detailed Description
Realism is an art style that emerged in the mid-19th century in France. It is characterized by its accurate and detailed depiction of the world, as well as its commitment to realism in both its subject matter and its style. Some of the most famous artists associated with realism are Gustave Courbet, Jean-FranÃÂçois Millet, and HonorÃÂé Daumier. Courbet’s The Stone Breakers (1849) and The Gleaners (1857) are often cited as quintessential examples of the style. Realism was a reaction against the idealized and often unrealistic depictions of the world that were common in earlier art styles such as Romanticism. Realists sought to show the world as it actually was, warts and all. This often led them to tackle subjects that were considered taboo at the time, such as poverty, violence, and sexuality. Despite its commitment to realism, realism is not without its own stylistic conventions. Artists often used dramatic lighting and bold compositions to create an emotional impact, and they often exaggerated the size of their subjects to emphasize their power or importance. Realism was a major force in 19th-century art, and its influence can still be seen in the work of many contemporary artists.
