Rosehill Cemetery [The Jauriet Monument]



The Jauriet monument..
It is topped with a statue of a woman in a thin, clinging dress. This is an example of a "surrogate mourner". Female figures of this type usually do not represent an actual person, but rather an ideal woman that the man buried here would like to have mourning him..
