A serene cemetery scene featuring a prominent bronze bust statue mounted on a tall stone pedestal, centrally positioned amidst well-maintained greenery. The bust depicts a bearded man and is surrounded by neatly trimmed bushes, vibrant yellow flowers, and patches of purple and green foliage. Two flat gravestones are visible in the foreground, flanked by symmetrical, rounded shrubs. The background includes a mix of tall trees, additional gravestones, and a stone cross, all set against the backdrop of an old, light-coloured building with arched windows.

Möchte zu diesem sehr weisen #Mastodon - Post von @ArneBab gegen #Vereinsamung durch digitale #Blasen & #KiKokons meine #Mimesis - #Menschenwürde - These aus 2025 einbringen:

„Die Idee der Menschenwürde bildet die gemeinsame #Mitte aller aufgeklärten #Religionen und demokratischen #Zivilreligionen.“

In diesem Satz habe ich Jahrzehnte der Arbeit in #Religionswissenschaft & #Politikwissenschaft gegen #Rechtsmimesis verdichtet. Ich erwäge ihn für meinen #Grabstein 🪦. 🤓📚🇩🇪🇪🇺🇺🇦🇮🇱🇺🇸💬

A black-and-white photograph capturing a serene, rural landscape. On the left side of the image, there is a section of an old stone building, possibly part of a church or historic structure, with a white column and an arched window. In front of the building, a wooden bench is positioned on a grassy area, inviting viewers to imagine themselves sitting and enjoying the view.
To the right of the bench, a path leads through a small graveyard with a few visible gravestones. A large, mature tree with a thick trunk and sprawling branches stands prominently in the middle-right of the image, adding a sense of tranquility and timelessness.
In the background, rolling hills and fields stretch out into the distance, creating a peaceful and expansive view. The sky is overcast, adding a soft, diffused light to the scene, which enhances the nostalgic and contemplative mood of the photograph. The image evokes a sense of history, quiet reflection, and the beauty of the countryside.

A #tunnel, lined with recycled #headstones, leading from St James Cemetery to #LiverpoolCathedral for #CemeterySunday. The #cemetery, once a quarry, lies below ground level. It served as a burial site from 1839 to 1936 and is now a public park.

#Wye (I think) for #CemeterySunday. That green stuff is grass and foliage (I think)

A serene rural cemetery set in a verdant, grassy landscape. A straight, narrow gravel path runs centrally through the image, inviting the viewer’s eye toward the distance. The path is bordered by lush, vibrant green grass and flanked by mature trees with thick canopies, their branches reaching overhead and casting gentle shadows on the ground.

On either side of the path, traditional grey headstones of varying shapes and sizes stand, some upright and others slightly weathered or tilted with age. The headstones are scattered throughout the grassy expanse, creating a sense of orderly tranquillity. In the background, more headstones are visible, along with a glimpse of a stone building. The scene is bathed in natural daylight.

A striking image of a black squirrel, perched attentively atop an aged headstone in an old cemetery. The squirrel’s dark fur stands out against the weathered grey stone, which is adorned with creeping ivy. Behind the headstone, a textured wall and scattered autumn leaves add to the serene, timeless atmosphere of the cemetery. Twisting vines, devoid of leaves, climb the wall, blending the natural and historical elements of the scene.

#CemeterySunday at #Mosigkau Palace. The rococo palace was built from 1752 as a summer residence for Princess Anna Wilhelmine, the favourite daughter of Duke Leopold I of Anhalt-Dessau. The princess never married and was a clever and thrifty businesswoman, so by the end of her life, she was one of the wealthiest women in the Principality of Anhalt. After her death in 1780, the palace was converted into a Frauenstift – a secular "monastery" for noble, unmarried women (such as the princess herself), where they could live in peace. The Stift existed until 1945 and was home to 48 canonesses and 8 abbesses.

This small #cemetery is the final resting place of many of these women. It is usually closed to the public (hence this photo taken through the gate), but it may be accessible as part of a guided tour.
