Romantic Landscape and Costumbrismo
This section features important examples of the two principal themes depicted in Spanish Romantic painting during the first half of the 19th century. The vision of Spain conveyed by artists was in fact determined by the foreign travellers of the Romantic era who visited the country at that time. The way that Spanish painters interpreted the urban and natural landscape and traditional customs, seen from the viewpoint of a fascination with the exotic and the unknown, influenced the evolution of both genres in the early decades of the century.
