The Funeral of Shelley , Louis Edouard Fournier (1889)
Wikipedia - "Romanticism largely began as a reaction against the prevailing Enlightenment ideals of the day. Inevitably, the characterization of a broad range of contemporaneous poets and poetry under the single unifying name can be viewed more as an exercise in historical compartmentalization than an attempt to capture the essence of the actual ‘movement’. Indeed, the term 'Romanticism' did not arise until the Victorian period."
