The Nightmare is a 1781 oil painting by Swiss artist Henry Fuseli. It shows a woman in deep sleep with her arms thrown below her, and with a demonic and ape-like incubus crouched on her chest. The painting's dreamlike and haunting erotic evocation of infatuation and obsession was a huge popular success.

Nicolai Abildgaard's Nightmare (1800) after Henry Fuseli's The Nightmare (1781). It shows a woman in deep sleep with her arms thrown below her, and with a demonic and ape-like incubus crouched on her chest, not facing her and the legs rest on the bed and not in her as in the Fuseli's painting. She is naked and sleeping with somebody (possibly a man, naked too, but we only see the head, buttocks and legs). She is not hanging from the bed like Fuseli's painting shows and here she is horizontal in relation to the plane of the painting.
