[Editorial note—Biblioklept posts a death mask or a life mask every Sunday, but we always use the title “Death Mask” — even if the image clearly depicts what some people call a “Life Mask.” Thank you to the people who write in every other week or so to point out that the image we’ve posted is not actually a death mask, but a life mask, but for editorial reasons (and some more conceptual/philosophical reasons) we will continue to post all masks under the heading “Death Mask”].
