What is the name of the artistic style that followed the era of Romanticism?

  1. Baroque

  2. Modern

  3. Renaissance

  4. Rococo

The correct answer is: Modern

The artistic style that followed the era of Romanticism is called Modernism. Baroque and Rococo are both artistic styles that pre-date Romanticism and are not considered to be part of the movement that followed it. The Renaissance, while a significant period for art, also occurred before Romanticism. Modernism represents a break from the emotional and subjective focus of Romanticism, emphasizing a more abstract and experimental approach to art.
