Disturbed by the Night Mare
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing and thought-provoking comic design from the 1830s, showcasing a man's startled reaction to a startling encounter with a nightmare. The image, produced in 1831, depicts a man standing in the moonlit lane, his face contorted in shock and fear as he gazes upon a group of horses rearing up in the distance. The play on words in the title adds an extra layer of intrigue, as the "mare" in this context can refer both to the fearsome creature of legend that causes nightmares and to the female horse that stands before him. The design expertly employs the use of contrasting elements to create a sense of unease and tension. The dark, open door behind the man invites the viewer to wonder what lies beyond, while the bright moonlight illuminates the scene, casting long, ominous shadows. The horses, with their wide, frightened eyes and bared teeth, seem poised to charge, adding to the sense of impending danger. Despite the clear elements of fear and surprise, there is also a sense of intrigue and wonder in the design. The man's expression suggests that he is not only afraid, but also deeply disturbed by the experience. The use of wordplay in the title adds a layer of complexity to the image, inviting the viewer to consider the deeper meaning behind the scene. Overall, "Disturbed by the Night Mare" is a captivating and thought-provoking work of comic design, one that continues to resonate with audiences over 190 years after its creation.
