I think, what a lot of people who regard these pictures as morbid do no realise that these photo’s may have been the only photo’s of the child the parents would ever have……we are so lucky now with all our technology, I have 2 photo’s of my Grandson and he’s not eve born yet! Whereas in those days people may have only one or two photo’s of their families. To lose a child, for me must be the most terrible of all griefs and these photo’s would bring comfort. Xxxx.

Why aren’t any photos of Rosalia Lombardo included on this site?!
Well isn’t that a ridiculous omission?! Someone did send me a link to the details of the case a while ago but I completely forgot to put it up and it’s slipped my mind ever since.
I’ll make sure she’s added in the next couple of days. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment
