Focus on Heurich Mausoleum and discuss the Description.
Four caryatids are attached to each corner of a granite mausoleum (15 by 22 by 16 feet or 4.6 by 6.7 by 4.9 metres). They each have wings and stand with their hands clasped in front of their waist with their eyes closed. The placement has their heads touching the mausoleum's roof and their bare feet resting on a low ledge. Two of the figures have braided hair, one has hair that hangs down over her shoulders, and the final figure has a cape pulled around her head. The back of the mausoleum has a stained glass window showing an angel holding a scroll that is inscribed with the word Peace.
The caryatids are signed:L. AMATEIS
