A white gentlemen´s urinel has been named the
most influential modern art work of all time.
Marcel Duchamp´s Fountain, which shocked the
art world in 1917, came top of a poll of 500 art
experts. The white porcelain urinal beat
Picasso´s Les Demoiselles d´Avignon (1907) into
the second place.

Romanticism
Around 1800, gained momentum as an artistic movement in France
and Britain in the early decades of the nineteenth century and
flourished until mid-century. With its emphasis on the imagination
and emotion,
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.
Orientalism and the worlds of literature stimulated new dialogues
with the past as well as the present. Ingres' sinuous odalisques
reflect the contemporary fascination with the exoticism of the
harem, albeit a purely imagined Orient, as he never traveled
beyond Italy.

REALISM
The Realist movement in French art flourished from about 1840 until the
late nineteenth century, and sought to convey a truthful and objective vision
of contemporary life. Realism emerged in the aftermath of the Revolution of
1848 that overturned the monarchy of Louis-Philippe and developed during
the period of the Second Empire under Napoleon III. As French society
fought for democratic reform, the Realists democratized art by depicting
modern subjects drawn from the everyday lives of the working class.
Rejecting the idealized classicism of academic art and the exotic themes of
Romanticism, Realism was based on direct observation of the modern
world. In keeping with Gustave Courbet's statement in 1861 that "painting is
an essentially concrete art and can only consist in the representation of real
and existing things," Realists recorded in often gritty detail the present-day
existence of humble people, paralleling related trends in the naturalist
literature of Émile Zola, Honoré de Balzac, and Gustave Flaubert. The
elevation of the working class into the realms of high art and literature
coincided with Pierre Proudhon's socialist philosophies and Karl Marx's
Communist Manifesto, published in 1848, which urged a proletarian
uprising.
