LESSON
NEOCLASSICISM (1780-1840)
The word neoclassic came from the Greek word neos meaning “new”
and the Latin word classicus which is similar in meaning to the English phrase
“first class”. The Western movement in decorative and visual arts was called
Neoclassicism. The neoclassical movement coincided with the 18th century Age
of reason also known as the Age of Enlightenment. The art style in this period
was brought about by the renewed interest in Greek and Roman classics.
Neoclassicism is the renewed interest in classical ideals and forms that
influenced Europeans and Americans. It also refers to the art forms created
after but inspired from the ancient times.
Neoclassical art pieces such as paintings, sculpture, and architecture
generally portrayed Roman history which elevated Roman heroes.
Characteristics of Neoclassical Arts includes: the portrayal of Roman
history, emphasis on mythology, formal compositions, use of diagonals to
show peak of emotion or movement, use of local colors, overall lighting, and
classic geo-structure. The compositions of neoclassical arts are a lot structured.
Generally, visual arts such as paintings delivers a moral message such as selfsacrifice or martyrdom, love for people and patriotism.
This art movement shows little interest in showcase of themes or
subjects related to religion, sensuality, passion and love as this period was a
period of enlightenment. It aims to show what is happening in the society – the
politics around them.
