EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait captured by Henry Guttmann, we are transported back to the year 1855 in England. The print titled "Fortune Teller" depicts an elderly woman engrossed in the mystical art of reading the future from coffee grounds left in a cup. The image exudes an air of mystery and intrigue as we witness this female fortune teller immersed in her role. With her weathered face and wise eyes, she emanates a sense of wisdom acquired through years of experience. Her hands delicately hold a crockery cup filled with coffee grounds, which serve as her medium for divination. This photograph not only offers us a glimpse into the world of occult practices prevalent during that era but also provides insight into domestic life at the time. It is fascinating to observe how individuals sought solace or guidance from supernatural forces amidst their daily routines. Guttmann's expert use of black and white format adds depth and intensity to the image, accentuating every line on the fortune teller's face while creating a timeless quality that transports us back centuries. As we gaze upon this intriguing portrait, we cannot help but be captivated by its enigmatic subject matter. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern age, there remains an enduring fascination with uncovering what lies beyond our immediate reality – whether it be through ancient practices like fortune telling or simply exploring different realms of human existence.
