Frédéric François Chopin;

French pronunciation: 22 February or 1 March 1810 – 17 October 1849), born Fryderyk Franciszek Chopin

On 17 October, after midnight, his physician leaned over him and asked whether he was suffering greatly. No longer, he replied. He died a few minutes before two o'clock in the morning. Those present at the deathbed appear to have included his sister Ludwika, Princess Marcelina Czartoryska, Sand's daughter Solange, and Thomas Albrecht. Later that morning, Solange's husband Clésinger made Chopin's death mask and a cast of his left hand. Chopin hand cast available in plaster or resin.
