Beauty of Transcendentalism
Transcendentalism is the belief that society and it's institutions corrupt the purity of an individual. Transcendentalist truly believe that people are the best when they are self-relient and independent. Ralph Waldo Emerson was one of the men who started off the theory of Transcendentalism. Emerson wrote an essay entitled "Nature" which began the Transcendentalism era. Transcendentalism was very nature oriented and believed that society ruined the original creation and wanted to preserve all nature.
The picture above symbolizes Transcendentalism pretty well. All transcendentalism artist of the time made sure to make every piece art was independent and real. I think that in today's world we need a little more independent and real things.
