The "Monument for Cristoforo Tomati" is a marble sculpture created by Italian sculptor Alfredo Noack between 1870 and 1890. It depicts a grieving woman kneeling in prayer before a figure of Christ, who stands over a tomb. The inscription on the tomb reads "Cristoforo Tomati - La Figlia Fiduando - Dio Consolatore" (Cristoforo Tomati - The Daughter Trusting - God the Consolator). Noack was a prominent sculptor of his time, known for his realistic and emotional depictions of human figures. This monument is a poignant example of his work, capturing the intense grief and sorrow of a mourner seeking solace in faith.
