Sensual males sculptures in cemeteries (2)

The Rome cemetery of Campo Verano contains an other male sculpture of interest.
The engraving below seems to indicate, although unclear, 'ARI ALLINI Roma 1875'.

Thinking, reflecting, meditating ?

The sculpture below, for which I havent succeeded yet to find the author or location, seems relevant to start this new year.

The nude young man seems to think, maybe meditating. If in a cemetery, maybe silently still loving his partner.

Sensual males sculptures in cemeteries (1)

There is a blog focussing on European cemeteries where I have found a few very nice male sculptures, but currently without references to the sculptors or artists involved.

The first male sculpture is in the Budapest cemetery of Kerepesi.


The next one is from the German cemetery of Engeshode in Hannover.



And the last cemetery for today's post is in Staglieno, Gennoa in Italy.



Ed Snyder is a photographer specializing in cemeteries. His blog reports some interesting anecdotes as well.

Male couple sculpture in cemetery (1)

Male couples sculptures displayed in cemeteries are not (yet) so frequent to my knowledge. I have been touched by this one below,in stone, concrete, or maybe a marble sculpture, affected by time passing, seasons, trees around, rain and maybe snow, ... Despite some search, I haven't found the location or more details.
