Tombstone N.N.

Mielnica Podolska | Ukraine
ukr. Melʹnycia-Podilʹsʹka (Мельниця-Подільська); inna nazwa: Mielnica
Burial place marked by cross on column and plinth. Cast iron cross with semi-plastic figure of Christ in radial gloria with titulus. At the base a mourning group - Mary, St John and kneeling Magdalene and two kneeling angels. Cross decorated with floral ornament, floral forms at the end of the arms. Column with octagon base, decorated with ogival maserets reaching halfway up and overlapping another eight ogival maserets decorating the upper, narrower part of the column. The shaft of the column base is flanked by a laurel wreath. Two-stepped plinth with lower step decorated with panels. The inscription is not preserved. The level of workmanship of the tombstone indicates that it must have been commissioned and made in a larger urban centre and brought to Mielnica. The tombstone was probably created in the 2nd half of the 19th century.
