Victorian era death photo. It was common in the Victorian era to photograph loved ones after death as a keepsake. Whenever I see these I am struck that the living seem unaffected by their grief. Sometimes I have to look twice to realize which subject is dead. In this one, it is the girl standing. She propped up with a stand.
r-aining-blood: Anneliese Michel - 21 September 1952 – 1 July 1976 - was a German Catholic woman who was said to be possessed by demons and subsequently underwent an exorcism. The case has been labelled as a misidentification of mental illness, negligence, abuse, and religious hysteria. Three motion pictures, The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Requiem, and the Asylum film Anneliese: The Exorcist Tapes, are loosely based on Michel’s story.
