London artist Ethel Le Rossignol produced a series of forty-two images, symbolic of events that take place between ethereal and material planes of existence, that explicate fundamental philosophical precepts of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century adherents of Theosophical philosophy. Her series of mediumistic images present a complex interweaving of textual, symbolic, and pictorial devices meant to encourage viewers to spend time meditating on possible meanings embedded in her narrative. Although not as well-known today, in the early part of the twentieth century her pictures were appreciated, and she displayed them at various functions before her 1929 exhibition held at London Spiritual Alliance were she provided information in the form of writings and lectures of the significance of her symbolic narrative.
