Art of the Neoclassical and Romantic Ages

Rick Steves’ Europe Season 12 showcases Europe’s great art and architecture. © 2024 | Around 1800, Europe was in transition, reflected in two art styles. First, we visit Europe's great cities with their stately Neoclassical buildings of columns and domes. Meanwhile, the Revolution has unleashed a call for freedom, both political and personal. We see dramatic Romantic canvases depicting extreme emotions and awesome nature, and tour dreamy castles — virtual theme parks of Romanticism. #ricksteveseurope #artofeurope #arthistory
