Well, this one is delightfully unsettling.
An unidentified Victorian gentleman sits calmly for his portrait while the woman beside him appears approximately 60% corporeal.
He's there. Suit, hands, expression, the whole business.
She looks like she may have materialized just long enough to put a hand on his shoulder.
The ghostly effect is almost certainly the result of the original photography, exposure and fading over the many years since this portrait was made. But knowing why something looks strange doesn't make it look any less strange. And this one looks strange.
The woman is so pale against the already faded photograph that portions of her dress and body nearly disappear into the background, while her face remains just visible enough to make the whole thing wonderfully eerie.
The card has clipped corners, warm sepia toning and plenty of age. The couple is unidentified, so whatever relationship, occasion or story brought them into the photographer's studio has gone with them.
I have not psychically read this photograph. Whatever is attached to it, if anything, comes to you completely unexplored.
Perfect for an antique photograph collection, cabinet of curiosities, Victorian gallery wall, ancestor-style altar, spirit communication practice, psychometry or simply the person who sees a Victorian woman fading out of existence and says, yes, that one.
Condition
Authentic antique condition with significant fading, toning, spotting and age-related wear. Corners of the mount have been clipped. The woman's image is particularly pale/faded, which creates the unusual ghostlike appearance. Please review photographs closely for exact condition.
