SUMMARY:Iconography - Zoom Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Cemetery Symbolism at Bellefontaine Cemetery\n\n\nIconography is the study or interpretation of images or symbols used on headstones\, crypts\, and mausoleums in a cemetery. Cemeteries are virtual encyclopedias of symbolism. The symbols on a person’s grave may help tell us something about their life.  Grave markers not only record the dearly departed’s name and date of birth and death\, but the design can often indicate a person’s history\, religion\, ethnicity\, culture\, occupation\, or social status as well as their pleasures\, sorrows\, and hopes for the afterlife. At Bellefontaine Cemetery and Arboretum\, we provide architectural and symbolism in-person tours throughout the year. We’ve had so much interest in the symbols on various grave markers and mausoleums that we thought we’d do a video presentation to share more information about “iconography”. \n\nJoin us for an exciting\, 50-minute Zoom presentation that will explain some of the different symbols you may see at Bellefontaine Cemetery. \n \n\n\nREGISTER NOW!\n \n\nMAKE A GIFT\n\nThese presentations are free.

SUMMARY:Iconography - Zoom Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Cemetery Symbolism at Bellefontaine Cemetery\n\n\nIconography is the study or interpretation of images or symbols used on headstones\, crypts\, and mausoleums in a cemetery. Cemeteries are virtual encyclopedias of symbolism. The symbols on a person’s grave may help tell us something about their life.  Grave markers not only record the dearly departed’s name and date of birth and death\, but the design can often indicate a person’s history\, religion\, ethnicity\, culture\, occupation\, or social status as well as their pleasures\, sorrows\, and hopes for the afterlife. At Bellefontaine Cemetery and Arboretum\, we provide architectural and symbolism in-person tours throughout the year. We’ve had so much interest in the symbols on various grave markers and mausoleums that we thought we’d do a video presentation to share more information about “iconography”. \n\nJoin us for an exciting\, 50-minute Zoom presentation that will explain some of the different symbols you may see at Bellefontaine Cemetery. \n  \n\n\nREGISTER NOW!\n  \n\nMAKE A GIFT\n\nThese presentations are free. However\, donations to the Friends of Bellefontaine Cemetery are gratefully accepted\nTo make a gift to the Friends of Bellefontaine\, email Cara Crocker or call our office at 314-381-0750. \nMake a gift onlineVENMO: @FriendsofBellefontaineCemeteryPAYPAL: ccrocker@bcastl.org
