Excerpt from Essays on Art
The poet had lost for a while his hold on the calm Spirit proper to all imaginative production, and which in plastic art receives its fullest expression. The rush and tumult of new passions, the rich outlook over new ideas, left him for a while at the mercy of his material, and in the sudden illumination Of men's minds it was indeed difficult to distinguish rightly between the beauty that would stay and the brightness that was only fleeting.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a unique analysis of the interrelation between poetry and the visual arts in early 19th-century England. The author focuses on the tension between the Romantic poets' preoccupation with passion, imagination, and social upheaval, and the enduringly calm, objective, and beautiful forms of sculpture and painting. While some Romantic poets rejected artistic ideals, others, including William Blake, understood the artist's ability to transcend earthly struggles and express universal truths through controlled and harmonious form. The author argues that this tension ultimately enriched both the visual arts and poetry during this transformative period.
