Fuseli: The Nightmare (1782)
A sleeping woman tormented by a hideous demon which yet she abandons lasciviously, under the gaze of a mare with wild eyes and vitreous.
A nightmare and a pun: the night mare: mare means both mare and demonic creature. The dream here oppressive, sultry and voluptuous code and makes the pun, a distorted sense of variation.
In swimming, the Siamese and the sleeping echoes this atmosphere, this nightmare sulfur.
