"The Mezzotint" by M. R. James | Ghost Stories of an Antiquary

Thomas Barker Season 1 Episode 25

It was a seemingly ordinary mezzotint*, unremarkable except for the unusually high price, and the half-missing attribution on the back. Until the changes began. For the curator of a university art museum, a most unexpected, and shocking series of events is about to unfold.

This tale first appeared in James's first collection, Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, in 1904.


*a type of monochrome print
