Realism emerged as a cultural movement in France after the 1848 Revolution. Strongly opposed to Romantic subjectivism and exaggerated emotionalism, the Realists believed in the ideology of objective reality and aimed to promote truth and accuracy through their art. This notion based on Positivist thinking prompted further artistic developments. These included the use of realism in Academic art, the emphasis on the optical illusions of light, and the development of photography as a key source. Three Women in Church is a painting by Wilhelm Leibl who was born in Cologne in Leibl studied under various artists at the Munich academy until he witnessed a public display by French realist Gustav Courbet, which prompted him to undertake a visit to Paris in that same year. Upon his return, Leibl moved to the Bavarian country side where he would further develop his art and focus on the countryside and peasant life that filled his immediate surrounds. His work was void of any personal impression, something characteristic of the realist movement.

The movement lasted about a century and captivated many of the major artists of the 19th century, who created detailed and realistic paintings of their new subject matter. The Impressionist style ( ) of painting emphasized loose imagery rather than finely delineated pictures. The artists of the movement worked mostly outdoors and strived to capture the variations of light at differing times throughout the day. The Romantic Movement ( ) spread from art into literature and philosophy. It emphasized emotional, spontaneous and imaginative approaches. In the visual arts, Romanticism came to signify the departure from classical forms and an emphasis on emotional and spiritual themes. The Symbolist ( ) painting emphasized fantasy and imagination in their depiction of objects. The artists of the movement often used metaphors and symbols to suggest a subject and favored mystical and occult themes. Pictorialism ( ) was a photographic term used to describe images that emphasized the artistic quality of the photograph rather than the scene it depicted. The movement’s primary aim was to bring photography into the fine art realm.
