Synopsis

First published in 1956, Fuseli Studies deals with the many-sided artistic achievements of Zurich-born Fuseli's baffling personality, who was one of the most erudite and renowned intellectuals of his day in Europe. The author's intention has been to place his subject in clear historical perspective within his own epoch, and thus traces Fuseli's contacts back to sixteenth-century mannerism and forward to twentieth-century expressionism. In this book, the social background of that absorbing period covering the artist's working years at the turn of the nineteenth century is evoked not only in analysing his style, poised between classicism and romanticism of the age, but also accounting for its appeal and relevance to the present day. This book will be of interest to students of art, art history, European history, and literature.
