The Bewitched Man (also known as The Devil's Lamp) is a painting completed c. 1798 by Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes.[1] It is an oil painting on canvas and depicts a scene from a play by Antonio de Zamora called The man bewitched by force (Spanish: El hechizado por fuerza). The painting shows the protagonist, Don Claudio, who believes he is bewitched and that his life depends on keeping a lamp alight. It is held by the National Gallery, in London.[2]

This is one of six paintings of witches and devils Goya painted for the Duke and Duchess of Osuna, who had an estate at Alameda de Osuna near Madrid.[3]
