Some greedy git ate the mince pie and drank the beer I left on the mantlepiece last night.

I was saving that to eat this morning.

Ah well, he left some presents though so at least there's something.

It’s safe to say the Victorian era had some less than desirable fashions in art, with death portraiture a popular mantlepiece theme! And yet the design during the 19th century has remained very prominent in the modern world and has influenced much in the world of art and design. brianparkerartist.co.uk/h…

In 1890, an 8-year-old boy named Henry James Bristow saved his 3-year-old sister's life by tearing off her clothing when she caught on fire. She had knocked over a paraffin lamp on the mantlepiece. Henry was severely burnt in the process and later died of his injuries.

>THE MEMORIAL PLAQUE TO HENRY JAMES BRISTOW

>Henry James Bristow (1882 - 1890) was universally hailed as "A Hero of Eight Year" in the aftermath of his act of bravery that saved the life of his sister, but which cost him his own life.

>His plaque in Postman's Park reads "Henry James Bristow, Aged Eight - At Walthamstow On December 30 1890 - Saved His Little Sister's Life By Tearing Off Her Flaming Clothes But Caught Fire Himself And Died Of Burns And Shock."

>A BRAVE BOY'S DEATH

>On Thursday the 8th of January 1891, under the above headline, the Nottingham Evening Post published the following article about the tragedy:-

>"Yesterday Dr. Macdonald, M.P., coroner for East London, received information of the death of Henry James Bristow, aged eight years.

>On the 3Oth of last month the mother left the deceased at home to look after his little sister, aged three years.

>On returning in about twenty minutes she heard loud screams, and on rushing into the room found the floor ablaze.

>The deceased was quite naked and severely burnt, and the clothes of the younger child were still shouldering.

>The deceased was removed to the hospital, where he expired after suffering great agony on Tuesday.

>On the way to the hospital the poor little fellow told his mother that his sister pulled the lamp off the mantelpiece, and it broke, the oil ran along the floor into the fireplace, and immediately became ignited and set fire to his sister's clothes.

>He stripped his own clothes off, wrapped his sister in them, and then threw some water over her and got the flames out, and put her on the table just as the mother returned.

>The younger child is in a critical condition, and in is feared that she will not recover."

>A MORE DETAILED REPORT

>In its issue of Monday 12th January 1891, The Aberdeen Evening Express featured a more detailed article about the tragedy, and revealed that, despite the initial prognosis, the younger sister was making good progress, and was out of danger:-

>A BRAVE LITTLE BOY

>"An inquest was held by Dr. Macdonald into the circumstances attending the death of Henry James Bristow, aged eight, the son of a cabinetmaker, residing at 7 Hawkesley Terrace, Walthamstow.

>Jessie Bristow, the mother, stated that on Tuesday week she left her house about five o'clock to go on an errand, returning a little before six o'clock.

Ceramic mantlepiece clock? Looking for info.

Got this from a house clearance. The owner had sadly passed away so I have very little information about it. Location is Ireland so it could be from here or the UK maybe? Wondering if anyone could help me out identifying it? Thanks.

Truffle is a good boy. He loves to play with his friends, exploring new things, lounging on the mantlepiece, drinking out of faucets and meeting new people. He is so laid back. He bleps and makes tiny happy sounds when you pet him. His coat is very thick and soft. He can't do one wrong thing.

In Mortdecai (2015) the etching that leads Johnny Depp to the Goya painting is an existing lithograph of a famous Bruges mantlepiece, altered to include the Goya. This makes the print anachronistic because the spectators are dressed in 17th century clothing, looking at a late 18th century painting. museabrugge.be/collecties…
