About the Artwork

“The Nightmare” by Henry Fuseli beckons you into a realm of dark enchantment.

This iconic oil painting, born in 1781, weaves a tapestry of haunting imagery and intense emotion. At its heart lies a slumbering woman, arms flung wide, her vulnerability palpable. Yet, perched upon her chest, an otherworldly incubus gazes out—a creature both demonic and ape-like. The backdrop reveals a spectral horse, eyes aflame with secrets. Fuseli’s chiaroscuro technique creates stark contrasts, emphasizing the sleeper’s lifelessness against the room’s rich hues. A mirror, a phial, and a book rest on a small table, while crimson velvet curtains frame the scene. The incubus and the horse evoke ancient beliefs about nightmares, but their meaning remains tantalizingly elusive.

Hang this mesmerizing print on your walls, and let “The Nightmare” become your portal to a world where dreams and darkness entwine.
