The Apparition, ca. 1885

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating black and white mezzotint print created by James Tissot, a renowned French artist of the 19th century. This hauntingly beautiful artwork transports us to Dunald Mill Hole, a mysterious cave in Britain's countryside. In this ethereal scene, we witness a spiritualist gathering led by William Eglinton. Amidst the darkness of the cavern, a radiant vision emerges - an otherworldly female figure draped in flowing robes. Her presence illuminates the space as she captivates both men and women alike with her divine aura. The mediumship session takes on an air of awe and wonder as individuals from different walks of life gather to witness this extraordinary apparition. Tissot skillfully captures the contrast between light and shadow in his meticulous depiction of clothing and details that bring each character to life. His masterful use of mezzotint technique adds depth and texture to this evocative image. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), "The Apparition" invites viewers into a realm where spirituality intersects with everyday existence. It serves as a testament to Tissot's ability to capture not only physical appearances but also emotional states within his subjects. This remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into Victorian-era fascination with spiritualism while showcasing Tissot's artistic prowess in capturing human curiosity about the supernatural world beyond our own reality.
