EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image depicts a Will o' the Wisp, a mischievous demon from folklore, luring unwary travellers towards certain danger in a bog, circa 1800. The Will o' the Wisp, also known as a jack-o-lantern or ignis fatuus, is a supernatural being that appears as a flickering light in the dark, often found in swamps or bogs. In this enchanting yet treacherous guise, the demon leads unsuspecting travellers to their deaths by enticing them with its ethereal glow. The eerie light, which is said to be the result of the decaying marsh gases, can be misleading and deceptive, leading travellers further into the dangerous terrain. The bog, with its murky waters and hidden pitfalls, is a deadly trap, and the Will o' the Wisp serves as a malevolent guide, leading the unwary to their demise. This print, dating back to circa 1800, captures the haunting beauty and the deadly danger of this folkloric figure, serving as a reminder of the dangers lurking in the dark and the importance of staying vigilant and aware of one's surroundings.
