Category: Tombstone Art

I recently posted some tombstone art photos of a finger pointing upward, symbolizing the hope of heaven or that the soul has gone to heaven. This is a symbol commonly seen in older cemeteries.

Here is another example of a pointing finger, only this finger is pointing downward.

A pair of child’s shoes on a small vacant chair indicates the site of a child’s grave, even if there is no identifying information on the marker. One of the shoes is usually on its side.
