The opening of this volume sets a scholarly tone, as the author, Henry Fuseli, presents a detailed overview of the challenges and expectations faced when discussing art. He emphasizes the need for clarity and precision in art criticism while outlining the fundamental principles that he will later discuss in-depth, including composition, expression, and the characteristics of ancient and modern masters.
