James Tissot: Not always a Genre Painter with an Eye for Fashion

Ball on Shipboard • 1874

The Apparition • 1885 • Mezzotint with black ink on Japanese paper • Minneapolis Institute of Art, Minnesota

James Tissot gravitated to spirituality when his lover of many years, Kathleen Newton, died from turbuculosis. He'd only a few years before lost a dear brother. Grief-stricken, he participated in a séance with a medium who ostensibly brought him into spiritual contact with Kathleen. Tissot painted this experience, though the painting has long been lost. However, he transfered the image to a print with the mezzotint technique, which you see above. It shows Kathleen with her spirit guide, which is the image Tissot and a witness claim was at first blurry but grew more distinct during the séance.
