EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a piece of history frozen in time - a gravestone from the 18th century. The image is a rubbing taken from a late 18th century New England gravestone, capturing the essence of an era long gone. The gravestone itself bears witness to the solemnity and sacredness associated with death during that period. Its weathered surface tells tales of lives lived and lost, while its intricate carvings depict an angelic figure with outstretched wings, symbolizing both protection and transcendence. As we gaze upon this artifact from another age, we are transported back to colonial America, where life was harsh and fleeting. This photograph serves as a reminder of our mortality and the fragility of existence. The artist has skillfully captured every detail through this rubbing technique, preserving not only the physical features but also the emotional weight carried by such memorials. It invites us to contemplate our own place in history and reflect on those who came before us. Whether displayed in a museum or cherished within one's personal collection, this print evokes curiosity and reverence for our ancestors' stories etched into stone. It serves as a poignant reminder that even after centuries have passed, their memory continues to live on through these tangible remnants of their journey on Earth.
