The Devil and Tom Walker

John Quidor

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Devil and Tom Walker by John Quidor depicts a man in a brown coat, hat, and patterned pants, holding a long stick or cane in both hands, leaning slightly forward. He stands on the left side of the image. A figure sits on the right side, wearing a red cloth around the waist, with arms raised. The background features dark trees and foliage. The color palette is predominantly dark and muted, with shades of brown. The man on the left appears to be interacting with the figure on the right. The overall atmosphere is ominous.
