[Some consideration has been given as to whether to include this illustration in the ts, as its combination of sexual exploitation, violent physical abuse and death is unappealing; but it does illustrate well one particular strain or tendency of Romanticism, which is presumably why it is included in the source text]

‘In this context Neoclassicism can be seen as a transitional phenomenon: contemporary uncertainty of faith & dramatic social and political changes experienced by 18th-century [ce] societies underlay much of the Neoclassical nostalgia for the simpler ideals of the pagan world. It is this sense of uncertainty and yearning for the past which, almost imperceptibly, introduces Romanticism into the heart of Neoclassical artistic inspiration.’

‘In Vienna, Canova’s great tomb to the Austrian Archduchess Maria Christina (1798-1805; Augustinerkirche)* is probably the most moving Neoclassical monument ever made, It consists of a frieze of classically draped figures, depicting all ages of man. At the time, this frieze was compared to a chorus from Sophocles. The figures seem to advance towards the blackness of an open door, set in the side of the tomb itself, which is a plain marble pyramid. Neither Banks** nor Canova chose to add any supernatural images to those monuments, despite the pathos and sentiment of both works. They seem to be expressing a disillusion and doubt which was also expressed by writers & philosophers at the end of the 18th century [ce].’
