Graven Images: New England Stonecarving and its Symbols, 1650–1815

Used Book in Good Condition

In Puritan New England, with its abiding concern for things not of this world and its distrust of forms and ceremonies, one art flourished: the symbolic art of mortuary monument stonecarvers. This carefully researched, beautifully illustrated work was the first to consider this art in depth as a meaningful aesthetic-spiritual expression. It is reissued for todayâ€™s readers, with a new preface outlining changes in the field since the book appeared in 1966.
