In a symmetrically framed parlour, a tall, rangy medium in heavy velvet holds a tarnished brass spirit trumpet to their ear as a single guttering candle casts high-contrast chiaroscuro shadows. Captured with the look of a Bell & Howell Standard 2709 on early panchromatic stock, the frame shows coarse silver grain, slightly lifted blacks, and moonlight blooming harshly through the casement behind them.
