I’m too sick to go out at the moment and take some photos so I’m going through my archives. Here are some from West Norwood Cemetery- one of London’s Magnificent Seven.

I’ve had a look through my book from The Thanatos Archive and some other online resources- but can’t find anything similar. There’s obviously a hand holding her on the right but if it was post-mortem she wouldn’t be holding the basket I presume?

I found myself on a side-quest today looking through some of my ephemera.
I looked at this photograph from my piles of Victorian photographs and I can’t work out if it’s a post-mortem photograph. What do you think?

First post finally up on my new blog. I’ll get the swing of this soon until then here’s a photo l surreptitiously took in Cementerio General de Valencia
Link to my blog is in my bio.
