Now I wonder if the other side, that's covered by the newer construction, has the second part of the word mother in Chinese.

How Lovely! Reminds me of a Louisiana Plantation.

Amazing reflection of the trees on the brick exterior.

Great infrared photo of the old place. That tarp is most appealing this way.

Awesome Close-up. Would that be tarnished copper? or, just painted molding and plaster?

Its amazing that cross hasn't fallen through the roof

Now THATS an interesting perspective!

droopy banister !?! You are right...doesnt look like the supports would do much good at all

Clemens would be happy that an Eliza element has lasted this long and well past his own years.

Improperly implemented life masks invariably serve as death masks.

What? no lockers!

Buddhism.

At first I thought she was to be kept in the house like Lenin!

A death mask is wax or plaster cast made of a person's face following death. They were (and are still, I assume) made as momento's or to make a portrait of a person. Death masks were made of George Washington, Abe Lincoln, and several other notable figures in history. Life masks are also made the same way.

Everything looks so amazing in black and white. This looks like a time forgotten.
