EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Necromancy: Edward Kelly, a magician, raising the Ghost of a Person lately deceased, in the Church Yard of Walton-le-dale, Lancaster" takes us back to the mysterious world of 16th-century England. In this haunting scene captured by Robert Cross in 1825, we witness an eerie ritual taking place under the crescent moon. Edward Kelly, a renowned magician and alchemist from that era, is depicted standing within a churchyard surrounded by ancient tombstones. With his flaming torch illuminating the darkness, he conjures up the ghost of someone recently departed. The atmosphere is filled with an air of supernatural energy as necromancers and alchemists like John Dee observe this macabre spectacle. The image showcases elements of both death and resurrection intertwined with occult practices and witchcraft. The stone church stands tall in the background while a magical circle is drawn on the ground to contain these otherworldly forces. Through this hand-colored etching & aquatint artwork by English School artists from the 19th century, we are transported into a realm where sorcery meets artistry. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with life beyond death during Elizabethan times. This print not only captures our imagination but also offers us glimpses into historical architecture and artistic designs prevalent during that period. It reminds us that even centuries later, there is still much intrigue surrounding magic and its connection to our mortal existence.
