He pitched everything on an ideal scale, believing a certain amount of exaggeration necessary in the higher branches of historical painting. In this theory he was confirmed by the study of Michelangelo's works and the marble statues of the Monte Cavallo, which, when at Rome, he liked to contemplate in the evening, relieved against a murky sky or illuminated by lightning. The violent and intemperate action which he often displays, in the conventional wisdom, destroys the grand effect of many of his pieces. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFuseli painted more than 200 pictures, but he exhibited only a small number of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Osmora Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47179805098224,"sku":"9782765908173","price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9782765908173_p0.jpg?v=1763701906","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9782765908173","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
