Salem (1908) is a painting by English artist Sydney Curnow Vosper (1866-1942), who is mostly known for painting landscapes and people of Brittany. It depicts Welsh lady Siân Owen (real person, then aged seventy-one), dressed in traditional Welsh costume, attending a service at Salem Baptist Chapel in village Pentre Gwynfryn, Wales. The painting gained notoriety after some pointed out that Siân Owen’s shawl hides the face of the Devil (see the picture below where possible facial contours are outlined). Vosper himself denied his intention of the Devil in the artwork.
