Romanticism uses different techniques: oil, watercolors, engravings and lithographs. Romanticism in literature began to emphasize the emotion, the feeling and the importance of the most intimate feelings in his works. Some of the characteristics of the music in the romanticism were the numerical growth of the orchestral group and the triumph of piano for soloist.

Realism acts against Romanticism. It tries to distance itself from the egocentrism and the idealism that Romanticism had reflected in his works. Realism portrays the everyday in an objective way. Realism in literature seeks to show in the works a faithful reproduction very close to reality. It opposes romanticism, reflects individual and social reality.

The painters portrayed objects according to the impression that the light produces in sight and not according to the supposed objective reality. Features in music:
- More freedom in the rhythm, there was the possibility to change the duration of the notes.
- Experimentation at the timbral level. There were new sounds and effects. Impressionism in literature emerged as a reaction against realism and set out to register sensations primarily, while restoring a new imaginative era. -
