In the art of painting, technical procedures make up the alchemy performed in the studio, depending on the ideas and mental images which initiated the creative process. These are the real tools which some painters of a romantic disposition consider to be essential to express unreality. Following further study of the research and creative processes curried out by Hugo, emphasis falls on the relationship which exists between his artistic work and that a certain painters of a romantic disposition who stood out due to their innovative technical methods (Cozens, Corot, Constable, Turner, etc). Both these artists and Hugo used technical methods as afield of personal exploration into inner vision and experience of the sublime.
