A couple days ago we had very nice weather, so I decided, as is my way, to visit a cemetery. In this case, it was the Old Burial Ground in Boylston, MA (1741). (Findagrave listing, Farber images; no MACRIS listing as Boylston is omitted from online files oddly).
I’ve been to this cemetery many times and decided that with the stone walls surrounding the grounds, I could safely unleash the homunculus whilst I took some photographs. It’s a scenic spot with a convenient parking lot across the street and worth a visit if you are in the area.

Very nice shots. Any insight about the stonework here? I’m particularly transfixed by the oddly African-seeming faces on the stones for Lydia B. and Gardner M. What do you know about that style?
That is usually called the face and rosette (or pinwheel) style which I sometimes personally call “geometric”; doing some preliminary digging I see that it is part of what is called the Merrimac Valley Style, a style created by John Hartshorne of Haverhill (and elsewhere) and copied by the Mulliken, Leighton, and Worcester families of carvers in Northeast and Central Mass.

In this case, these stones were carved by Jonathan or Moses Worcester of Harvard using very fine Pin Hill slate; I think they’re all Jonathan.See – http://luna.davidrumsey.com:8280/luna/servlet/view/search?QuickSearchA=QuickSearchA&q=worcester%2C+jonathan&sort=Name%2CDates&search=Search
