(4 1/4 x 6 1/2 In) This is an original vintage POST MORTEM cabinet photograph from the 1800s. I believe it shows a dead girl posed in her confirmation dress, a candle in her right hand and a rosary in her left.  This one is not immediately recognized as a Post Mortem, the clues are very subtle. The first clue is the fact that she is being held up by a stand placed behind her. Secondly, her hands are almost black, and if you look closely you can see that the arm holding the rosary has been tie...

A very "fresh" post mortem.  Many times if death was expected shortly, a photographer would be sent for and be at the family's home just moments before or after death. Johnny Depp

A young dancer's postmortem photograph. The lady is dead, and is posed using a metal rod alongside her spine, and her hand is actually strapped to the screen behind her using wire, making it appear as if she is posing by herself. Vintage Images
