Q131584964 is a 1802 oil by Henry Fuseli, a british_romanticism work, held at Kunsthaus Zürich.
This painting depicts a dramatic scene with two nude figures. On the right, a man stands with his arms raised, while on the left, a figure appears to be emerging from flames. The background is dark, with the flames illuminated in shades of orange and yellow. The use of light and shadow creates a sense of tension and drama, drawing the viewer's attention to the central figures. The contrast between the warm tones of the flames and the cool tones of the surrounding darkness adds depth to the composition.
