Ursula - Henry Fuseli
Ursula, between thrill and grace: the dramatic atmosphere of Henry Fuseli
In this art print of Ursula, Henry Fuseli deploys a composition where shadow and light clash to better emphasize the narrative tension. The dark tones, punctuated by pale touches on the face and hands, accentuate emotional contrast and theatrical gestures. The chiaroscuro technique creates an almost sculptural depth, while the posture and gaze convey a psychological intensity characteristic of Fuseli. The overall atmosphere is gothic and lyrical, capturing the eye and inviting attentive contemplation.
Henry Fuseli, master of dramatic Romanticism
Henry Fuseli, a key figure of British Romanticism of Swiss origin, is renowned for his dreamlike and sometimes unsettling scenes, where the supernatural blends with anatomical realism. Active at the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th, he profoundly influenced narrative painting through his love for theater, literature, and myths, and through famous works like The Nightmare that have left a mark on collective imagination. His mastery of movement, contrast, and psychological expression makes each painting a visual staging, revealing Fuseli's interest in dramatic power and suggestion rather than simple representation.
