"Fisherman and the Genie" is a notable oil painting created around 1863 by the American symbolist artist Elihu Vedder. The artwork is inspired by the tale of the same name from "One Thousand and One Nights," also known as "Arabian Nights," which is a collection of Middle Eastern folk tales compiled during the Islamic Golden Age. Vedder, known for his allegorical and often mystical works, brings to life the story of a poor fisherman who releases a genie from a bottle. The genie, initially threatening to kill the fisherman, is eventually outwitted and compelled to serve him.

The painting is a testament to Vedder's fascination with exotic themes and his ability to infuse his work with a sense of the otherworldly. His depiction of the genie and fisherman scene is imbued with a dramatic intensity that reflects the perilous interaction between the two characters. The artwork showcases Vedder's skill in using light and shadow to create a mood that is both mysterious and foreboding, a characteristic feature of his larger body of work.

Elihu Vedder's "Fisherman and the Genie" is held in high regard for its fine execution and its place within the context of 19th-century American art, particularly within the movement of symbolism, which sought to express the ineffable and the imaginative. The painting is a significant example of Vedder's contribution to American art and his unique interpretation of literary themes. It remains an important work for scholars studying the cross-cultural influences between the West and the Middle East, as well as for those interested in the narrative and symbolic potential of visual art.
