What is romantic realism?

Romantic Realism is an art style that combines the emotional depth and imagination of Romanticism with the accuracy and detail of Realism.

Romantic realism brings emotional storytelling into realistic subjects.

Scenes may be grounded in reality but are infused with warmth, idealism, or narrative.

Romantic realism often uses soft light, rich color, and meaningful composition to evoke a feeling or story, even if the forms and subjects are realistically rendered.
