4'th pic from the bottom caught my attention but it's too small to see what's wrong with the kid on the left, so i found a bigger image, here's what's wrong.

Weird thing is, his hands are blurry, which means they were moving when the photo was taken, so who's the dead one lol.

Dead one is on the right, was really hard to keep kids still for pics back then

I've seen many Victorian Memento Mori photos, but virtually all of these are new to me. Some are very poignant. Others seem grotesque, although they may have been perceived differently at the time. An outstanding collection. Thank you for sharing.

Whoa, that one woman may have been a little ripe

I've always been fascinated with these pics. Thanks!

I love memento mori photos. I hadn't seen most of these. Thanks so much for sharing, great set!

Wish there were names or more info, so it would be possible to go to FindaGrave and see who they were.

The little boy in pic 4 has seen the other side, and he clearly did not like what he saw.......... 00 < his eyes )
