His style evolved over time, incorporating elements of Romanticism into his later works, yet always retaining a commitment to ambitious composition and detailed execution. Other notable pieces like Thetis Bringing the Armor to Achilles, The Three Sisters, The Fright of Astyanax, and The Cave of Despair demonstrate his versatility and mastery across a range of mythological and historical themes.
