*‘Not only did some artists work in both Classical & Gothic styles but they also fused together stylistic elements they found common in both periods – a fusion unique to Neoclassical art. The linear qualities of the antique were blended with what they saw as equally linear elements in 13th- **& 14th-century [ce] art. Some of the most original styles in the decades just before & after 1800[ce]*** are to be found in paintings & drawings that fuse the Classical-Gothic linearity, including the work of Blake, Fuseli, the Dante illustrations of Flaxman, & drawings by the Austrian painter Joseph Anton Koch.’
