La magie et l'hypnose : recueil de faits et d'expériences justifiant et prouvant les enseignements de l'occultisme / par Papus ; avec dessins de Ange Bossard, L. Bouchet, L. de Waldner et L. Delfosse.

Gérard Encausse · 1897 · Paris : Chamuel, 1897. · 31 pictures

A French occult treatise by Papus (Gérard Encausse), published in Paris by Chamuel in 1897, aimed at readers of esoteric and hypnotic lore. Its engraved-style plates show a robed magician conjuring a spectral figure, a seance table with a glowing apparition, robed figures in a temple, and a top-hatted photographer with a woman inside a chalk circle; the crosshatched black-and-cream rendering suits designers wanting dramatic occult imagery.
