Uncover the hidden meanings carved in stone in this fascinating lecture on cemetery iconography and symbolism. Explore the history and significance behind common gravestone motifs, from angels and urns to willow trees and clasped hands, and learn what they reveal about past beliefs, values, and cultural traditions. Join Museum Coordinator Joe Noce as we journey for a deeper understanding of how communities memorialize the deceased and expressed grief, remembrance, and hope through art and symbolism. (JN)
