Post-Romanticism

Post-Romanticism is a cultural and artistic movement that developed after Romanticism, roughly from the late 19th to early 20th century. It reflects a shift towards exploring complex emotions, individualism, and new ideas about beauty and truth, often embracing ambiguity and darker themes. While Romanticism celebrated idealism and nature, Post-Romanticism tends to focus on inner struggles, existential doubts, and the imperfections of human experience. It influences various art forms, including literature, music, and visual arts, by blending emotional depth with modern perspectives, paving the way for later modernist movements.
