‘The exuberance and “fury” of the Baroque must be avoided, it was argued, because they led to “barbarous” and “wicked” works. Continuing in this tradition, Winckelmann, for example, argued that the Italian Baroque sculptor & architect Bernini * had been “misled” by following nature.’

This* is really an acknowledgement of defeat by the impossibility of extracting or abstracting 19th century [ce] Romanticism – or of separating it from its historical context. This way, at least I can try again later (eg by marginal notes).
