Description

In the final installment of the "Awe" series, we discuss the connection between gravestone motif design and other artistic forms, like mourning jewelry, at the turn of the 19th century. And we thumb through all of our research thus far and see what the art of Relief Wilcox Town's gravestone says about her, in the context of her time.
