"The Night Hag Visiting The Lapland Witches" is a 1796 painting by Swiss artist Johann Heinrich Füssli, also known as Henry Fuseli. This work is a testament to Fuseli's fascination with the supernatural, the grotesque, and the sublime, which are recurring themes in his oeuvre. The painting depicts a scene inspired by Act III, Scene V of William Shakespeare's play "Macbeth," where the witches prepare their cauldron before the arrival of Macbeth. Fuseli takes artistic liberties to infuse the scene with a more intense and eerie atmosphere, characteristic of his dark romantic style.

The artwork showcases Fuseli's skill in creating dramatic and nightmarish imagery that taps into the viewer's subconscious fears. It features the figure of the Night Hag, or the Nightmare, a mythological creature believed to cause bad dreams, as she descends upon a coven of witches in a barren, icy landscape of Lapland. The composition is rich with gothic elements and a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, which serve to heighten the sense of horror and the uncanny.

Fuseli's "The Night Hag Visiting The Lapland Witches" is an important piece within the context of late 18th-century art, as it reflects the era's preoccupation with the gothic and the emergence of Romanticism. The painting is also significant for its influence on the visual arts, particularly in how it captures the imagination and explores the darker aspects of the human psyche. It remains a compelling example of Fuseli's ability to merge literary references with his unique visual language, leaving a lasting impact on the Romantic movement in art.
