Description
Romantic poets thought that creatures of the fantasy had the
same right to be subjects and protagonists n the course of
literature, as well as real people. This phenomenon can also be
seen in paintings. A sleeping woman is real, but the creature
sitting on her stomach and the horse head are the nightmares.
Actually, they are occupying the centre of the painting, the
paralysed lady seems helpless in the face of the demons. Is it an
image of the nightmare she is dreaming? Probably yes, but it can
also be a terrible vision of nocturnal creatures which are freed at
night by the darkness itself, and which are threatening the
sleeping man. Is the scene static or dynamic? Static, the
painting presents motionless characters. Would you call the
atmosphere presented on the painting as creepy, fabulous, or
peaceful? Creepy - a romantic painter would like his painting to
be seen this way, but the little red devil is not too creepy at all.
