This representation of Saint Michael fighting Satan shows a dynamic composition enriched by the special use of color together with an intense chiaroscuro that serves to give the work a special atmosphere. Areas of intense color are created together with darkness, light and reflections that highlight poses, bodies, as well as flying forms or intense glows. On the central axis that organizes the composition, the triumphant figure of the archangel about to beat a figure, incarnation of evil, stands out. Represented using a sotto in su view, that is, from the bottom up, Miguel's triumphant pose stands out while leaving no doubts about the defeated attitude of the demonic being who appears naked lying on the ground. The formula makes possible to clearly highlight the outcome of the fight, his triumphant figure unfolds occupying a large part of the work, showing a clear attitude of combat, endorsed with the sword that he brandishes in his right, and the shield and armor that cover him.

This romantic French 19th century allegoric oil painting on square canvas has a sky blue background, a fluffy cloud fills the central part of the painting where a woman is lying down playing the lyre, while a graceful cherub seems to twirl over her. This oil on canvas painting represents the allegory of music - with a woman dressed in classical clothes and a putto- a very popular theme during all the neoclassical age, with its lively scene inspired by the Rococo period. The composition creates a awesome trompe-l'œil effect thanks to the color palette scheme. Well painted white and gray shadings (chiaro scuro) that stands out from the light blue background in typical grisaille style. This painting originally was an over door frieze...
