EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 18th-century chapbook titled "A Full, True and Particular account". The illustration, originally published in John Ashton's book of Chap-books of the Eighteenth Century in 1882, depicts a spine-chilling tale of the ghost or apparition of the Late Duke of Buckingham's father. The image showcases one of the Duke's servants witnessing this supernatural phenomenon as the ghost appears before him clad in armor. The woodcut engraving, printed by F. C. in the Old Bailey, beautifully portrays the eerie atmosphere surrounding this haunting encounter. It is said that for several months leading up to his death, the apparition foretold the demise of Duke Buckingham. This macabre narrative unfolds against a backdrop featuring an intricately designed bed and other period furnishings. Displayed within a private collection and now made available through Fine Art Finder's reproduction services, this facsimile offers viewers a glimpse into both historical storytelling traditions and artistic techniques prevalent during that era. The attention to detail in capturing every nuance adds depth to this evocative depiction. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to an age when tales like these held audiences spellbound with their blend of mystery and suspense. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, stories about ghosts and apparitions continue to captivate our imagination.
