The veil lifted. Modern developments of spirit photography. With twelve illustrations
The Veil Lifted is a London spiritualist book of 1894, edited by Andrew Glendinning with J. Traill Taylor, that presents twelve photographs as evidence for spirit photography aimed at a Victorian readership interested in the occult. The pictures are soft, grainy halftone portraits of women in dark and pale draped clothing, often with a faint ghostly figure beside a living sitter, and a designer could draw on their gauzy, theatrical staging, shadowed interiors and mood of mystery.
