Romanticism was an artistic movement that influenced the Arts in general, the philosophy and even the political thought of their time. During the period in which this movement lasted, society highlighted what has been called the romantic spirit: an attitude and worldview centered on the individual. The authors portrayed the human drama, the emotions experienced by the people, the tragic loves and utopian ideals, so this movement showed a fanciful treatment of material.
Realism was also an artistic movement where one sought to show what one really is, in a concrete way and without fantasies. Realism is considered an escape from over-worshiping romanticism to material things. And it presents itself more realistically than romanticism. With this we can conclude that the realistic movement ignored the fanciful treatment of romantic material.
