EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An unsubstantial ghost" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment that combines imagination and lime-light effects. The English School engraving, part of a private collection, portrays an eerie scene filled with supernatural elements. In the midst of a dense crowd, an ethereal figure emerges - an apparition that defies explanation. Its unsubstantial form seems to float effortlessly amidst the onlookers who are both fascinated and terrified by its presence. The artist skillfully captures the combined effects of imagination and lime-light, creating an atmosphere of mystery and horror. The clothing worn by those in the crowd adds to the historical context of this piece. It transports us to a time when belief in ghosts and otherworldly beings was prevalent, heightening our fascination with this spectral encounter. As we gaze at this image from long ago, it serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with the supernatural. It invites us to ponder questions about what lies beyond our understanding and challenges our perception of reality. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork for generations to come through their Fine Art Finder collection. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind it but also offers insight into cultural beliefs during that era.
