As part of my larger “project” I am documenting what I believe to be the fusion

As part of my larger “project” I am documenting what I believe to be the fusion of early photography and tombstones in Rhode Island.  These two mediums (photography and gravestones) I believe speak the same language of memory and death.  

This is the back of one such stone in Providence from 1859.  Tomorrow, I will post the front.
