Re: Vintage Death Photos 1860-1910
Most of these are not post mortem. It is a myth that the Victorians posed, propped and painted the dead to appear alive. Parents holding babies, more often than not, the babies are asleep. True Victorian post mortem photos were rare but quite obvious with the decedent lying in repose in a bed or coffin.
