"The Kiss of the Enchantress" is a painting by Isobel Lilian Gloag, a British artist known for her narrative and often symbolist works. Created in 1890, this painting is an exemplar of Gloag's fascination with mythological and mystical themes, which frequently featured in her oeuvre. The artwork depicts a scene inspired by the enchantress Circe from Greek mythology, who is famous for her ability to transform men into animals with her magical potions.

In the painting, Gloag's interpretation of Circe is imbued with a sense of both allure and danger, capturing the moment of transformation as the enchantress kisses her victim. The composition is rich in symbolism and detail, characteristic of the symbolist movement that sought to express ideas and emotions through allegory and complex imagery rather than direct representation.

The artwork is noted for its intricate use of color and its blend of realism and fantasy, which creates a dreamlike atmosphere that draws the viewer into the narrative. "The Kiss of the Enchantress" is considered an important work in Gloag's career, reflecting her skill in combining technical proficiency with a deep interest in the stories and legends of the past.

Isobel Lilian Gloag (1865–1917) was an artist who studied at the Royal Academy Schools and exhibited her work at various prestigious venues, including the Royal Academy of Arts and the Society of British Artists. Despite her talent and the recognition she received during her lifetime, Gloag's work, like that of many women artists of her era, was somewhat overshadowed by her male contemporaries. Today, "The Kiss of the Enchantress" is appreciated not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its contribution to the understanding of female perspectives in the art of the late 19th century.
