SUMMARY:Veils of Sorrow
DESCRIPTION:Step into the Victorian age\, when mourning was an art form woven into fashion\, ritual\, and etiquette. From jet jewelry to crepe-draped garments\, this glimpse into 19th-century mourning reveals how families honored loved ones and navigated loss through rich\, symbolic traditions. \nCatherine Weinraub holds a Bachelor of Arts in American History\, with a concentration in historic preservation and a thematic focus on the United States through the Reconstruction era. She earned her Master of Arts in Collections Management from the George Washington University Museum Studies Program. Ms. Weinraub’s professional work is grounded in a sustained interest in architectural history and the social dimensions of the American past. Her career has centered on historic house museums\, including positions at Arlington and Mount Vernon. In her capacity as Historian of Ivy Hill Cemetery\, Ms. Weinraub oversees the development and delivery of guided tours and undertakes a wide range of research and interpretive initiatives in support of the site’s mission.
