Tombstone of Alexander Kuznetsov

St Michael's Cemetery in Riga
ID: NGR-000713-P/764

Tombstone of Alexander Kuznetsov

Burial place probably originally marked by a cross on a two-stage plinth and base. The first step of the pedestal with chamfered upper edges, the second step of the pedestal tapering upwards, with profiled upper edges. On the first front step of the pedestal a panel with quarter-circle chamfered lower corners, in which a relief inscription is carved (2). On the first front step of the pedestal a panel enclosed with a segmental arch, extending downwards in profile, in which a convex carved inscription is set (1). One of the bands in front of the plinth probably belongs to the gravestone.

Inscription:

(1) S. ✝ P. / Tu spoczywa / Aleksandra / Kuzniecowa / ur.20 kwietnia 1930 r. / zm. 12 czerwca 1935r. //.
(2) Ostatni podarunek / kochanemu synkowi / od ojca i matki. //.
