Camille Claudel, Debussy and La Valse, 1891
From Realism to early Modernism, the 19th century gave birth to a variety of artistic movements.
The Realism and Romanticism of the early 19th century gave way to Impressionism and Post-Impressionism in the later half of the century, with Paris being the dominant art capital of the world. In the United States the Hudson River School was prominent.
