Julia Pastrana: The Ugliest Woman In The World Buried 153 Years After Her Death by henrydeelinkag(m): 10:03am On Feb 19, 2013 |
During the mid-1850s, Pastrana met Theodore Lent, a U.S. impresario who toured the singing and dancing Pastrana at freak shows across the United States and Europe before marrying her. In 1860, Pastrana died in Moscow after giving birth to Lent’s son, who inherited his mother’s condition. The son died a few days later, and Lent then toured with the mother and son’s embalmed remains. After changing hands over the ensuing decades, both bodies ended up at the University of Oslo in Norway. “Imagine the aggression and cruelty of humankind she had to face, and how she overcame it. It’s a very dignified story,” said Mario Lopez, the governor of Sinaloa state who lobbied to have her remains repatriated to her home state for burial. “When I heard about this Sinaloan woman, I said, there’s no way she can be left locked away in a warehouse somewhere,” he said. Crowds flocked to the small town of Sinaloa de Leyva on Tuesday to pay their respects to Pastrana, who was buried in a white coffin garlanded with white roses. “The mass was beautiful,” said New York-based Mexican artist Laura Anderson Barbata, who has led a nearly decade-long campaign to have Pastrana returned to Mexico for a proper Catholic burial. “I was very moved. In all these years I’ve never felt so full of different emotions." http://www.deelinkage.com/2013/02/julia-pastrana-ugliest-woman-in-world.html?m=1
