The focus of Realism-Art is the ordinary, every day world; the goal was to create art that was completely honest. They tried to portray the lives and problems of mainly the middle to low class people- those considered to be unexceptional and commonplace. Artists of this era were fascinated with the phenomenon of light and thought the only topic to create art of was the world around them. Some realist artists: Gustave Courbet, Honoré Daumier, Ignace Henri Theodore Fantin-Latour, Wilhelm Leibl, and Edouard Manet.
