EDITORS COMMENTS
This hauntingly beautiful print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures the mysterious and mischievous nature of the Will o' the Wisp phenomenon, also known as feu follet or marsh light. Dating back to circa 1830, this depiction shows a luminous spirit luring unsuspecting victims to an unpleasant fate in the marsh. The Will o' the Wisp has long been a source of fascination and fear, with its flickering lights appearing like ghostly lanterns in the darkness. In folklore, these elusive spirits are said to lead travelers astray, often resulting in their demise. The artist has captured this eerie essence perfectly, with a sense of foreboding and danger emanating from the scene. The play of light and shadow in this print creates a sense of otherworldly beauty tinged with malevolence. The Will o' the Wisp is depicted as a spectral figure dancing amidst the misty marshes, beckoning towards an uncertain fate for those who dare follow. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the power that nature holds over us - both enchanting and perilous. The Will o' the Wisp serves as a reminder to tread carefully in unfamiliar territory, lest we fall victim to its deceptive allure.
