cast

A “woman in gold cast” refers to a casting made from a mold taken from a living woman, typically coated in a thin layer of gold or gold-like material. These casts were popular in the Victorian era as a way to preserve the memory of a loved one or to create a decorative object. The process of creating a woman in gold cast involved making a mold of the woman’s body, usually using plaster or wax. Once the mold was made, molten gold or a gold-like material was poured into the mold and allowed to cool and solidify. The resulting cast would be a detailed and lifelike representation of the woman’s body.

Woman in gold casts were often used as decorative objects, displayed in homes or given as gifts. They were also sometimes used for educational purposes, as they could be used to teach anatomy or art. In some cases, woman in gold casts were even used as a form of currency.
