Grace in Death



One of the most disturbing museums I have ever visited was Guanajuato's mummy museum. The soil where the bodies were buried mummifies them. I confess that I did not stay long in the museum, but I did find these graceful, at rest, hands.

You managed to find an elegant image in that charnel house -- amazing and beautiful.
