The story
behind the art.
We once toured a Victorian cemetery and were told that back then on a
Sunday afternoon
families of the deceased would come to visit bringing a picnic with
them. They used the long, slab stone markers as a "table".
This little bear's Great Aunt Mabel (as identified on the
sarcophagus) always loved a picnic. So her great niece brought one
on her cemetery visit along
with some friends to help enjoy the party.
