What is The Romantic Rebellion. Romantic Versus Classic Art. about?

"The Romantic Rebellion, as a book and a television programme, followed Kenneth Clark's Civilisation. Its range is narrower but its treatment is deeper. It deals with the rivalry and compromise between the Romantic and the Classic schools of art in the second half of the 18th to the middle of the 19th century - between the revolutionary spirit of the time and the traditional and tranquil ideal found in Graeco-Roman antiquities. To trace this ' rebellion' Kenneth Clark brings into penetrating focus the creativity of outstanding artists such as David, Blake, Ingres, Gericault, Delacroix, Turner, Constable, Millet, Degas and Rodin. The author, with his gift of communicating scholarship in a style that is lucid and stimulating, presents new insights into the creation of masterpieces in one of the greatest periods in the history of art"
