Gravestone of Edward Szatkiewicz, Janina Szatkiewiczówna, Felicjan Łojko, Klara Rusak

Vilnius | Lithuania
Rossa Cemetery in Vilnius
The burial place is marked by an earth tomb framed by a concrete band at the head of which is a wall with a rectangular upright closed with a gable. The whole is topped with a simple cross on a plinth and its own base. The molding is edged by a cornice, framed by quarter-circular scrolls, flanked by vases. The wall transitions with chamfered lateral run-offs into a fenestration with five cuboidal plinths enclosed by hipped pediments. The plinths are connected by double bars, with a chain on the front right. In the finial, a plaque with chamfered corners with a ritual inscription and traces of an unpreserved photograph. On the wall, in a row, three plaques - lateral with chamfered corners. Right panel without inscription. On the axis, in place of the rectangular plaque a narrower marble plaque with chamfered upper corners. On the front right, on the band, an engraved signature.
