Invalid Girl And Her Toys
This one is both heart-breaking and haunting. An invalid girl, ill with I don’t know what, and her closest companions posed for a photo. The girl herself looks resigned to her condition, but the joyful toys all around her just give me the creeps.
In picture #5, the “blank” look can be attributed to the fact that she was dead. This is the Victorian era genre of last pictures taken with their loved ones. If you look down at her feet, you will see the contraption that was used to “prop” up the bodies. Google it.
