An illustration by F H Townsend scanned from the 1905 first edition of 'They'. It shows a partly transparent little boy in a blue smock running away from a fountain in a grand garden. Behind we can see the approach of an early 20th Century motor car.
"They're very shy still. Very shy. But, oh, lucky you to be able to see them! I only hear them. I daren't think what the place would be without them."
- Rudyard Kipling 'They' (1905), his sentimental story of the ghosts of children haunting a garden.

...a man in a chair, recoiling from it.
In 1914 The Strand published the first English translation of 'The Apparition' by Ivan #Turgenev, accompanied by a dramatic double-page illustration by Ernest Wallcousins. (I've had to scan it in two parts otherwise I'd have damaged the volume's spine)
