The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity,
covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.
― Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy
A vintage fashion history illustration from 1892 showing three Victorian widows dressed in all-black dresses. The young lady in the middle is holding a wreath, perhaps to lay as tribute on a grave? Scanned from my personal collection of antique magazines.
