PERSONS, APPARITIONS, AND EVENTS
The spiritual and psychic experiences of the characters, sketched in this series of scenic pictures called ‘The Guardian of the Threshold,’ are a continuation of those which appeared before in my life pictures called ‘The Portal of Initiation’ and ‘The Soul’s Probation,’ and are supposed to take place about fifteen years later than the occurrences in ‘The Portal of Initiation.’
