Königin Hetepheres hatte definitiv Geschmack!
Mir gefällt am antiken Ägypten, dass sie so viele Tiere und Pflanzen ornamental in Kunst übersetzten : )
a fox at the top of the image jumping over a quoit, 3 standing stones covered by a flat stone, a smaller stone in front, some grasses and stylized foxgloves in front of the tomb. Above the flat stone a full moon with stars swirling around it. The fox is in profile with the fox's face on the right, the tail on the left. Linocut, white and dark blue, Maria Strutz

Sepia-tinted photo of a small mound on moorland with a dip in the centre
#TombThursday
The remains of a #Dartmoor cairn. You can see the collapsed pit at the centre.
Interior color photo looking out through a very large window with a rounded arch at the top. Before it is a red tiled floor, once a theater stage, with a rectangular white tomb cover in the foreground. Beyond the window is the semicircle structure with no roof that was once a theater gallery, with gold statues in the niches of the walls. Below the walls outside the window is a crowd of people and in the center of them is a surrealist sculpture with a boat propped up high in air by huge crutches with large sculpted water drops hanging down from it.
Goodbye Dalí. Salvador Dalí’s final resting place, appropriately located center stage in the #Dalí Theater and Musuem in his hometown of #Figueres. A fantastic place.

Equestrian statue of a boy in Carrara marble and alabaster. The body of the animal entirely in alabaster probably contains the ashes of the boy. 3rd century AD. Terme di Diocletiano, Rome (my Photo). #TombThursday.
Dartmoor cist grave
#TombThursday
(Yes, this is a thing)
Bronze Age cist with a broken capstone at Merrivale, Dartmoor. A burial with the person in a foetal position would have taken place
