Tombstone N.N.

Mielnica Podolska | Ukraine
Tombstone stele. The upper part closed with a semicircle, with a prominent profiled finial with three acroterions - in the centre and on the corners, decorated with a palmette and volute motif. Under the arch, a central wreath of ivy leaves and stylised lily flowers on its sides. Below a deep panel framed by a frame, closed from above by an inverted arch. Below an ornament with palmette, volute and rosette motif dividing the engraved name of the stonemason: Karl Hofmann. On the sides of the slab at the level of the inscription there are cast-iron fixings, testifying to the once existing grille fencing the gravestone. The level of workmanship, as well as the preserved signature of the stonemason, indicate that the tombstone must have been ordered and made in a larger urban centre and brought to Mielnica.
