Farther than what we studied in class…
“In Romantic art, nature—with its uncontrollable
power, unpredictability, and potential for cataclysmic
extremes—offered an alternative to the ordered world
of Enlightenment thought. The violent and terrifying
images of nature conjured by Romantic artists recall the
eighteenth-century aesthetic of the Sublime.”

Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2000–. http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/roma/hd_roma.htm
