"Will O' the Wisp" is a renowned artwork by Swiss-English Romantic painter Johann Heinrich Füssli better recognized as Henry Fuseli. Completed in 1790, Fuseli's painting beckons into the heart of the sublime and supernatural, situating itself at the crux of his explorations of the fantastical and the eerie. Aptly named after the enigmatic mythological phenomenon of spectre-lights or ghostly illuminations haunting travelers at night, "Will O' the Wisp" offers a stirring visual interpretation of this folklore.

In this artwork, Fuseli brilliantly captures the perplexing nature of such apparitions and knits a rich tapestry of fear, allure, and mystery. The painting depicts a night scene with a spectral light hovering and leading a man into an ominous forest. The uncanny light known as 'will o' wisp' reflects Fuseli's fascination with the other-worldly and subtly crosses over into the realm of metaphysical.

While the "Will O' the Wisp" may not be as famous as some of Fuseli's other works - notably "The Nightmare" - it remains a crucial example of his flair for intertwining the Gothic with the Romantic. Moreover, through its detailed rendering of a popular superstition, the painting grants deep insights into Fuseli's uncanny knack for peering beyond the obvious and treading into the spheres of the inexplicable.

As with many of Fuseli's works, the exact location and current ownership of "Will O' the Wisp" is not definitively recorded. This lack of information, however, underscores the elusive, transient nature of the phenomenon captured in the painting itself, aligning perfectly with Fuseli's fondness for the ethereal and paranormal, which was frequently reflected in his visionary artistry.
