If you could choose your headstone or statue , something to to sum up your feelings about life and death, what would you choose?
I learned this in a screenwriting class I took- go big or go home.
This is what I want- I want this statue walking towards my grave because
in stone, in marble this statue holds inside of it exactly how I look at life.
Plus it is creepy as hell. The expression on the figures faces are a million times scarier
then any gargoyle’s face.
One last thing.
I want to buried next to someone who put their favorite fudge or cookie recipe on
their headstone.
Go big or go home.
Fate by Hugo Lederer (1896) Fate drags a man and woman by their hair through the grass toward the Von Schröder mausoleum. Ohlsdorf Cemetery, Hamburg.
Very interesting article on Von Schröder Mausoleum as well as interior shots of Mausoleum itself HERE

Creepiest thing I’ve seen all day, Anita.
Thank you 🙂
That is one fab sculpture. Love it 🙂
YIKES! Ooh, I’m going to have to think of this and write it up, myself.
Check out the link at the bottom of my post- it’s a good article and there are pictures of the inside of the mausoleum.
Whoa 😱 That statue has the creepy that doesn’t stop. I would not have imagined the full bodies being dragged behind.
That’s the part that got to me-it’s not what you see coming towards you it’s what you see from the side or behind it. Awesome.
