Mansions Of The Dead

This Group is for Art and Photographs Inspired By Cemeteries and Mausoleums.

This Is A Cemetery
(Author Unknown)

Lives are commemorated - deaths are recorded - families are reunited - memories are made tangible - and love is undisguised. This is a cemetery.
Communities accord respect, families bestow reverence, historians seek information and our heritage is thereby enriched.

Testimonies of devotion, pride and remembrance are carved in stone to pay warm tribute to accomplishments and to the life - not death - of a loved one.

The cemetery is homeland for family memorials that are a sustaining source of comfort to the living.

A cemetery is a history of people - a perpetual record of yesterday and a sanctuary of peace and quiet today. A cemetery exists because every life is worth loving and remembering - always.

Cemeteries are communities of the dead and within these communities there lies many dwellings of the dead. From the simple to the elaborate these final homes for those who have passed contain some of the most unusual, elaborate and freaky sculpture art in the world.
