This Weeping Angel Tombstone is one of the most complex. Do you know the story about this sculpture? This cemetery monument was inspired by the 1894 American sculptor William Wetmore, author of the famous "Angel of Sorrow" sculpture. He created this angel tombstone for his wife Emelyn, who died in 1894 and was buried in a "Protestant" cemetery in Rome. An angel crying over a tombstone reflects sadness, pain, and dark emotions. Her drooping wings, hidden face and crying pose show her great pain at the funeral. It represents what William Wetmore felt when he was devastated by the loss of his wife.
Many Westerners believe that flowers are life given by nature and symbolize life. From blooming to withering, from withering to blooming again, people are more willing to accept this concept of survival, rather than admit that once they die, there may be nothing left, so for a long time, flowers have become the main pattern of tombstone angel carving. In addition to angels and flowers, there are many different plants on the marble angel headstone, all of which symbolize life and rebirth. We often see carved patterns such as ivy, lilies, palm leaves, etc. in cemeteries. Some of the plants on these tombstones represent longevity, some represent immortality, some represent gorgeous life, and some mean that it is safe to be buried in the earth. It also symbolizes closing the last page for the final chapter of the deceased
