Postromanticism is an aesthetic that blends the intense emotional and individualistic expressions of the High Romantic Era with the stylistic and thematic complexities of later time periods.

Postromanticism is most closely associated with the creative phase of the Post-Romantic Period. This moment in art is characterized by a blend of the old Romantic fervor with emerging influences such as realism and modernity. The time period is most commonly recognized to begin at about 1850, when irreconcilable disagreements first arose between different factions in art and literature about how the Romantic ideal should carry forward.
The broadest definiton of Postromanticism extends beyond this timeframe though, including all Romantic inspiration up to and including the present day.
