EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, depicts the materialisation of Geordie, the controlling spirit of the renowned spiritualist medium, Annie Fairlamb, later known as Mrs. J.B. Mellon. Geordie was described as a tall Scotsman, with a long white beard and bare feet, who had lived most of his life in Newcastle. The image captures a moment of spiritual manifestation during a seance, with Geordie appearing in a lattice-patterned, leaded window, his ethereal form barely concealed behind a white sheet. The chair, with its ornate design, adds to the Victorian atmosphere of the scene, as does the sense of anticipation and wonder in the room. Spiritualism, a popular belief system during this period, held that the dead could communicate with the living through mediums, such as Mrs. Mellon. Materialisation seances, where spirits were believed to physically manifest in the presence of the living, were a common practice, and the ability to produce a materialised spirit was considered a mark of a true medium. Despite the controversy and skepticism surrounding spiritualism, the belief in the existence of controlling spirits like Geordie continued to captivate the public imagination, and this photograph serves as a fascinating glimpse into the history of this intriguing phenomenon. The tall, bearded figure, with his bare legs and feet, remains a mysterious and enigmatic presence, a testament to the enduring allure of the paranormal and the spiritualist movement.
