Oil Paintings in Romanticism and Cubism
Oil Paintings During Romanticism Times And Cubism
In cubist paintings, objects are broken up, analyzed, and reassembled in an abstracted form, instead of depicting objects from one viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to present the piece in a greater context.

Since they were in revolt against the orders, they favored the revival of potentially unlimited number of styles (anything that aroused them). Romantic artists were fascinated by the nature, the genius, their passions and inner struggles, their moods, mental potentials, the heroes. They investigated human nature and personality, the folk culture, the national and ethnic origins, the medieval era, the exotic, the remote, the mysterious, the occult, the diseased, and even satanic.

Many of their subjects, be they people or landscapes, were represented as combinations of basic geometric shapes - sometimes showing multiple viewpoints of a particular image. This approach was related more to the way we see images in our minds-eye rather than in real life, that is if we close our eyes and try to see an image, perhaps of a friend or a family member, it is often hard to visualise the whole image. We usually see parts or fractured pieces. In Cubism, paintings are therefore often described as looking like pieces of fractured glass. An Oil Painting by John Constable during Romanticism times
