Together, these movements reflected and fueled a period of social, cultural, and political change in Europe during the 19th century.

As more and more emigrants from Europe and other countries came, Americans decided to take pride in their country. Instead of leaning on Europe's Romanticism, American writers, poets, artists, musicians, etc. developed a new style: realism, due to the pride of their land.

The Baroque period in Europe began around 1598 and lasted until 1702 and the emergence of Rococo. Baroque and Rococo style overlap a bit, and this time period also saw a rise in the sciences. Late in the eighteenth century Romanticism was on the rise, the lavish Rococo was out of style. There is some debate as to the dates of Romanticism, narrow dates are 1750-1850. A wider range sees Romanticism lasting into Modernism. Realism begins in 1845 and lasts until 1880. Impressionism runs from 1870-1890. Post-Impressionism lasts about ten years, 1880-1890.
