EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures a moment of mysticism and trickery from the late 19th century. Taken in 1896 by Paul Nadar, it features Colonel Albert de Rochas d'Aiglun, an esteemed administrator of the ÔÇÜÔÇ░cole Polytechnique in France and an expert on the occult. Known for his deep knowledge of spiritual matters, Colonel Rochas finds himself at the center of this enigmatic image. Through a clever use of double exposure, Nadar manages to capture what appears to be Colonel Rochas' astral body. The sepia-toned print exudes an ethereal quality as we witness this mystical energy manifesting itself before our eyes. It is a testament to both Nadar's technical skill and Colonel Rochas' belief in the supernatural. However, it is important to note that this photograph raises questions about authenticity and deception. Was this truly a glimpse into another realm or simply a well-executed hoax? The blurred lines between reality and illusion add layers of intrigue to this already captivating image. Regardless of its veracity, this spirit photograph serves as a fascinating relic from an era when mysticism held great allure for many individuals. It invites us to ponder the mysteries that lie beyond our understanding and reminds us that even within photography - supposedly capturing truth - there can still exist elements of trickery and manipulation.
