Synopsis. Though never a coherent group, Realism is recognized as the first modern movement in art, which rejected traditional forms of art, literature, and social organization as outmoded in the wake of the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution.
The term Classical Realism first appeared as a description of literary style, as in an 1882 criticism of Milton 's poetry. Its usage relating to the visual arts dates back to at least 1905 in a reference to Masaccio 's paintings.
