EDITORS COMMENTS
The Nightmare, painted by Henry Fuseli in 1790/91, is a captivating and haunting masterpiece that continues to mesmerize viewers with its supernatural allure. This oil on canvas print, now housed in the Goethe Museum in Frankfurt, Germany, transports us into a realm of darkness and mystery. In this enigmatic scene, we witness a ghostly figure lying on a bed while an eerie creature known as an incubus hovers above her. The room is shrouded in shadows, enhancing the sense of foreboding and unease. A horse's head emerges from behind a curtain, symbolizing the intrusion of nightmares into our waking lives. Fuseli's mastery lies not only in his ability to depict horror but also in capturing the psychological turmoil within his subjects. The woman appears trapped between sleep and wakefulness as she experiences this terrifying vision. Her vulnerability is palpable as she succumbs to the power of her own subconscious fears. The Nightmare embodies elements of gothic literature prevalent during Fuseli's time – it evokes both fascination and terror simultaneously. Its enduring popularity can be attributed to its ability to tap into our collective fascination with the macabre. As we gaze upon this extraordinary painting print by Peter Willi, we are reminded that art has the power to transport us beyond reality's confines and delve deep into our darkest imaginings.
