Cemetery Art

I love French cemeteries. Many graves are decorated with metal and ceramic books with messages and photos. There’s a new store in town that sells these, but they are far more elaborate than others I’ve seen. Two examples:

A farm scene with a tractor. The background is painted with a blue sky. The words are for Papy, grandfather.

Another has a bronze man dressed in 1930s style with knickers pedaling a bicycle.

Of course there are the ceramic books with messages from families and friends, scenes of rivers flowing, gardens, etc.

I haven't checked to see if any are already on display in the local cemetery.
