Stone Type
slate
Tympanum
face with ornamentation
Border
The beveled edge of the stone joins with a thin width line to form a border around its circumference. The tympanum and illustrated side panels are in bas-relief and their inclusion of negative space clarifies their space.
Remark
The tympanum's central image is of the bewigged old judge overlooking the deceased. His mirror-image wig is finely detailed but his face is simply an oval shape with raised eyebrows, large proboscis and a stern look. The wings are detailed with a single quill and multiple segments along with a reinforced lead edge.
Physical Status
straight cracked
Intelligibility
readable
