Closer

I can't wait any longer! I've been so excited about having a blog for a few weeks. About time. Eh. The Gravestone Girls are old souls... sometimes it takes us a little longer than the rest of the world with technology.

I've had a cemetery on my brain today. Surprised right!?

Cimitero Monumentale di Staglieno in Genoa, Italy. A place I've only visited through photographs.. but wanted to share...

All my favorite cemeteries.. whether I've been there in person or not.. always seem to possess this stark contrast of light and dark places...



Recognize this image? This beautiful photo of Staglieno was taken by Bernard Pierre Wolff and used on the cover for the single for Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division.



One of the Gravestone Girls loves her brides. This is a wonderful and unusual example! Look at the delight on her face. This couple wanted to be remembered for their love for eachother.

Check out this video I found of some other beauties I found in Staglieno.
