William Makepeace Thackeray’s Death Mask

2 thoughts on “William Makepeace Thackeray’s Death Mask”

  1. “These are slight remembrances; but it is to little familiar things suggestive of the voice, look, manner, never, never more to be encountered on this earth, that the mind first turns in a bereavement. And greater things that are known of him, in the way of his warm affections, his quiet endurance, his unselfish thoughtfulness for others, and his munificent hand, may not be told.”

    from Dicken’s eulogy for Thackeray
