1877 Appearance Church Yard Disturbed Follet Luminous Phenomena Praying Sudden Wisp
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from 1877, two women are seen deeply engrossed in prayer in a serene French country churchyard. The tranquility of the scene is suddenly disrupted by the appearance of an otherworldly phenomenon. The feu follet, also known as a will-o'-the-wisp, is a luminous wisp or wands of light that dance in the night sky or near marshes and bogs. In this instance, the feu follet seems to have materialized in the churchyard, casting an ethereal glow over the women and the surrounding graves. The natural occurrence of the feu follet has long been a subject of fascination and mystery. Some believe it to be the result of the ignition of methane gas, while others attribute it to supernatural forces. The women in the photograph, however, appear startled and disturbed by the sudden appearance of this natural phenomenon, their prayerful reverie interrupted by the otherworldly intrusion. The photograph captures the sense of wonder and unease that the appearance of a feu follet can evoke. The natural beauty of the churchyard is juxtaposed with the otherworldly glow of the phenomenon, creating a striking and memorable image. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of the unknown and the mysteries that nature continues to hold.
