Day 25 of #31DaysOfGraves - Unique Animal
A talking serpent seems fairly unique!
This is the absolutely remarkable 18th century stone at Lundie, with Adam and Eve in Eden on one side and Abraham, Isaac and the unfortunate ram on the other.
Truly, one of the most special grave markers in Scotland.

It looks to me like this gentleman was a physician, so perhaps the snake is a take on the Rod of Asclepius?

#31daysofgraves Day 23, cross. We have a few of the usual crosses in Dunblane Cathedral graveyard, so thought I would highlight this rather special one, made by monumental sculptor Peter Smith and designed by architect William Leiper.

#31daysofgraves Day 23: Cross. Crosses were almost unheard of on colonial New England gravestones, but carver William Holland would occasionally include a small cross pattée atop the crowns on his gravestones. Carved for Thomas Hale, 1750, at Longmeadow Cemetery in Longmeadow Mass.

Grave of Dr.John Rae at St.Magnus Cathedral, Orkney, Scotland. Worked for Hudson Bay Co. in Canada & searched for missing British Navy crew in 1845, discovering the men had resorted to cannibalism. Ostracised because of this, but later memorialised at Westminster Abbey.

The 1599 painted wood memorial to William Smart in St Mary le Tower, Ipswich, with a landscape view of the town of Ipswich along the bottom, the earliest known depiction of the town. Smart and his wife Alice kneel below the inscription which is an acrostic on his name.

Grab von Prof. Dr. Richard Güntsche auf dem Friedhof Wilmersdorf. Das Relief des Kopfes stammt von Richard Grüttner.
Güntsche beschäftige sich zB mit rationalen Tetraedern und den goniometrischen Funktionen der Kanten- und Flächenwinkel ihrer Ecken - oder so.

#31daysofgraves Day 18: Mistake. I had to do a double take when I saw this one, because at first I thought it said he was 712 years old. Turns out he was 71, but the carver, Calvin Barber, had initially carved 72. It was made for Elisha Cornish, who died in 1794. Located in Simsbury, Connecticut.
