EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enigmatic figure of Austrian medium Maria Silbert, sitting outside her home in Graz in 1933. Dressed in a fur coat and hat, she looks introsive as she waits in the open coach. Maria Silbert, who died in 1936, was renowned for her extraordinary mediumship abilities, which often involved phenomena produced with her feet. Her talents drew the attention of prominent paranormal investigator Harry Price, who was instrumental in bringing her to the public's notice. However, Price's investigations eventually revealed that Silbert was not above using trickery in her séances. Despite this discovery, the image of Maria Silbert, with her mysterious aura and otherworldly presence, continues to captivate and intrigue. The photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the line between the natural and supernatural worlds seemed to blur, and where the search for answers to the unknown was a source of fascination and wonder. Maria Silbert's story is a fascinating chapter in the history of mediumship and the paranormal, and this image serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities and contradictions that often accompany such phenomena. The photograph, with its timeless quality and intriguing subject matter, invites us to ponder the mysteries of the universe and the human desire to connect with the unknown.
