Could you please check if this English sentence makes sense/sounds awkward? "This painting is at once the representation of a particular kind of temporal order and a link in a continuous chain of artifacts that spans the depths into an imagined past." If my expression sounds weird, how would you change it for the better? Thank you very much!

Are the phrases "at one's wish" and "at one's free will" correct expressions? By "at one's wish" I want to say one can do whatever he wishes, e.g. There is a possibility to make it happen at one's wish. Does that sound weird? Thanks!

In English, what's the right way of saying "the middle-left/right" portion of a picture?
As said in the question, I'd like to point the reader's attention to a specific part of a painting: it is a little bit to the right hand side from the center point. How should I say it in English? Is "middle-left/right" a word? Thanks!

The meaning of "la commessa"?
This is the title of a chapter: "La 'Commessa' nell'ultimo 500 e gli Architetti del Primo Seicento." I understand that it means roughly "The 'Commessa" in the end of the 1500s and the architects of the early 1600s." But what does "la commessa" mean exactly? Thanks!

A word similar to "circumnavigate"?
I know that to circumnavigate means to avoid a certain issue, but is there a word that brings up a similar mental image of approaching a problem by circling around the heart of the matter––in order to eventually tackle that problem instead of avoiding it? Thanks!

"In this narrative, Bianchi becomes a pivotal figure in bringing an earlier Roman neoclassical style into its maturation."
In place of "bringing" I was also wondering if I could use "bringing forth" or "carrying forth"?
Does this expression sound awkward to you? If yes, how could I improve it? Thank you very much!
