Color photograph shot through the ornate verdigris scrollwork of a mausoleum gate. In the center, a stained glass menorah on an amber background comes into sharp focus through a gap in the ironwork. The foreground scrollwork is soft and out of focus. Color photograph of a stained glass window inside a locked mausoleum, shot through dirty glass. The window depicts an ornate white menorah on a golden amber background with Art Nouveau floral borders. Below the window, a marble inscription is partially legible in dim light. Black and white photograph shot from ground level looking up. A flat granite grave marker engraved with a menorah and radiating lines sits at the base of a massive oak tree, its roots beginning to encroach on the stone.
