Romanticism Art

A movement in Western art of the 19th century generally assumed to be in opposition to Neoclassicism and much associated in America with Thomas Cole and the Hudson River School of painting between 1820 and 1880. Romantic painters treat the landscape as though it has symbolic meaning far beyond its obvious geographical features. Cole and his followers believed that natural features were created by God, and that a quiet, reverent artist could find God in nature, especially in wilderness areas, and then transfer symbolically resulting inspirations to canvas. Romantic works are marked by intense colors, turbulent emotions, complex composition, soft outlines and sometimes-heroic subject matter.

Fashion Photograph

I have Chosen to use Nigel Barker the British fashion photographer for my project. The way he captured models caught my interest. A lot of his work reflects on one of the subject I would like to touch on in university. Such as graphic designer and a fashion photographer. Nigel is a talented man he is not just a photographer, he is also a former model from British and Sir Lankan decent and he also judges on American’s next top model. i really like the the picture above the colours that he used makes the model stand out even if the whole body of the model is not showing
