My mother was born 115 years ago today. She was not a Victorian child. She was a little Edwardian girl. But when she was five years old the country saw the coronation of King George V. What a spectacle that was! The king and all his lords were clad in a lot of fur. Their robes were embellished with ermine (or squirrel) skins. That hair is very soft. Leonardo painted a lady with an ermine. And on TV in “His Dark Materials” the heroine Lyra has a cuddly ermine “daemon”. I prefer to see animals that are not dead.
