Summary/Abstract: There are topics in art that always sound contemporary, so we often come back to them. One of them is Belles lettres and Painting. There are two perhaps even three different theses for this problem. The first is that fiction and fine arts are too far apart from each other as a type of art. The second thesis is that the arts have not only their major and significant differences, but also their undeniable similarities. Such is the perception of the French and German romantics. According to them, in the different historical eras, aesthetic trends and directions (genres) form close artistic styles, criteria and tastes as well as similar literary, plastic and musical imagery. And the third thesis is neutral. It seeks to harmonize the first two – different in expressive means, but similar in ideological and emotional impact respectively to the reader, viewer or listener.
