"The Artist Moved by the Grandeur of Antique Fragments," also known as "The Artist Overcome by the Grandeur of Antique Fragments," is a notable work by Swiss painter Johann Heinrich Füssli, who is more commonly known by his Anglicized name Henry Fuseli. Created in 1778-79, this painting is a testament to Fuseli's fascination with the sublime and his profound appreciation for classical antiquity. The artwork depicts an artist, often interpreted as Fuseli himself, lying back in a state of emotional overwhelm, as he is struck by the power and beauty of the fragmented sculptures from the ancient world surrounding him.

This piece is emblematic of the Romantic era's preoccupation with the emotional and the sublime, as well as the period's revival of interest in the classical past. Fuseli's work is characterized by its dramatic intensity and the artist's unique ability to convey psychological depth and the complexities of the human experience. "The Artist Moved by the Grandeur of Antique Fragments" is a visual representation of the Sturm und Drang (Storm and Stress) literary and artistic movement in Germany, which emphasized individual subjectivity and extreme emotion as a reaction against the rationalism of the Enlightenment.

The painting is significant for its portrayal of the artist not as a detached observer, but as an individual profoundly affected by the power of art and history. Fuseli's use of chiaroscuro and his dynamic composition contribute to the overall impact of the piece, highlighting the emotional response of the figure amidst the ruins of a bygone era. The work is a reflection on the enduring nature of art and the way in which the remnants of the past continue to influence and move contemporary artists.

"The Artist Moved by the Grandeur of Antique Fragments" is held in high regard for its contribution to Romantic art and for its insight into Fuseli's own psyche and artistic philosophy. It remains an important work for scholars studying the interplay between neoclassicism and Romanticism, as well as those interested in the role of emotion and the sublime in the visual arts.
