Realism

写実主義 / c. 1840s–1880s / Style / Figurative Painting

Nineteenth-century Realism replaced myth, idealization and heroic drama with contemporary workers, peasants, urban life and familiar places, changing which subjects could occupy serious large-scale art.

Contemporary labor, rural life and urban daily subjects / Bodies, clothes and tools shown without idealization / Large formats traditionally reserved for history given to ordinary people / Restrained color and substantial surfaces for earth, fabric, stone and skin

Entrée du dictionnaire

Usages idéaux
Making ordinary labor and life a central rather than supporting subject · Showing society through the weight of objects, bodies and places without heroic polish
Typographie
Restrain headline drama and prioritize specific names, places, work and time.
Composition
Give everyday people the center and a serious scale, letting working posture and surrounding objects reveal living conditions.
Matière
Use earth, sooty black and muted blue with palpable paint, leaving wear in hands and clothing visible.
Précaution
Photographic detail alone is not Realism. Without its choice of subject and refusal of idealization, it becomes only a rendering technique.
Pour approfondir
Nineteenth-century French Realism / Contemporary life and anti-idealization / Courbet, Millet and Daumier
