Buzzfeed: 17 Haunting Post-Mortem Photographs From The 1800s .. so fascinating! Most families couldn't afford photography, so they took pictures after family members died because it was the only time they would get dressed up and have pictures taken- more so then weddings! literally, the last chance to have a picture taken of a loved one. So sad. Very creepy, but definitely cool.

Is this post-mortem? The mother's hands offer no support to her child. Even the one behind her back is curled into a fist. The natural position would have been to open-handedly lend support, as well as the mother's loving touch. The only thing is that the mother's face looks very alive.
