[Grammar] When prepositions come in consecutive order

[Byunduc]

In my text book there are some sentences

1
This clever artist also forecast the usefulness of the medium for graphic artists in a letter.

2
They would lead to greater naturalness in the graphic depiction of anatomy, clothing, likeness, expression, and landscape.

3
Fired by a belief in art as an imaginative embodiment of cultivated ideas and dreams.

4
Eugene Delacroix was the most prominent of the French artists who welcomed photography as help-mate but recognized its limitations

5
These writers reflected the opposition of a section of the cultural elite in England and France to the 'cheapening of art


It's confusing

Because something prepositions are not decorating things just before them.


1

Or

It's confusing because Subject is Eugene(the most prominent), so seems who clause decorates Eugene, but in context the latter seems to make more sense.
