Were Table Legs Scandalous in the Victorian Era?

Victorians are often remembered for their strict manners, but they were also fascinated by death. Public viewings of the deceased could draw huge crowds, and anatomy lectures became popular forms of education and entertainment. For those who died unidentified or unclaimed, the journey often continued in the anatomy classroom. In an era before modern media, death was not hidden away, it was part of everyday life. #LearnOnTikTok #TikTokLearningCampaign #EduTok
