Mezzotint of a kneeling man bowing before a robed ghostly old man rising from a magic circle, as a turbaned woman points upward in a dark interior.

Saul bows to Samuel after the witch of Endor has conjured him from the dead. Mezzotint, 1795.

A mezzotint in dark tones shows a bearded, robed old man rising in pale light above a circular magic circle, while a kneeling man bows to the ground with his hands outstretched. A turbaned woman stands behind, pointing upward beside a hanging lamp, and a figure in armour looks on at the right.
