EDITORS COMMENTS
Trilby, the captivating illustration from 1894, transports us into a world of mystery and intrigue. In this mesmerizing print, we witness the power dynamics between Trilby and Svengali unfold before our eyes. The artist, George Du Maurier, skillfully captures the essence of hypnotism through his vivid use of color lithography. As we gaze upon the scene, it becomes evident that Trilby is under Svengali's spell. Her entranced expression reveals her vulnerability as she succumbs to his sinister influence. The contrast between light and dark further emphasizes the hypnotist's control over his subject. Du Maurier masterfully conveys the theme of manipulation in this artwork. Through subtle details such as body language and facial expressions, he illustrates how one person can exert dominance over another through hypnosis. This thought-provoking image raises questions about power dynamics and free will. The Victoria & Albert Museum in London proudly houses this iconic piece that continues to captivate audiences even after more than a century has passed since its creation. It serves as a reminder of both the artistic talent of Du Maurier and the enduring fascination with themes like hypnosis and mind control. This print by www. bridgemanimages. com invites us to delve into a world where reality blurs with imagination – an invitation impossible to resist.
