 Believe it or not, this is Prime Minister Laurier's "death mask". It was made by taking an impression of Laurier's face after he died in 1919. It was quite a common thing to do in those days.
Prime Minister Mackenzie King liked his office at Laurier House better than the one on Parliament Hill because it was quieter and more comfortable. colour photo of Mackenzie King's office at Laurier House
