RE: Riverside Cemetery, Anamosa, Iowa
That’s a majestic tombstone with the lion. Grant wood painted an icon picture. I wonder why he has them both pursing their lips. Hard times maybe?
My photo of St. Margaret of Scotland pioneer cemetery here on P.E.I.
Stoic Iowa farmers perhaps. I have read that he never offered much of an explanation for the painting, and he frequently changed his interpretation of it. That looks like a cemetery with a view! The benches are perfectly placed.
It is a beautiful location. Link to my post about the cemetery. https://steemit.com/cemeteryphotos/@redheadpei/pioneer-cemetery
