This photograph, taken by Alfredo Noack around 1875, captures a monumental tomb in the Camposanto of Genoa. The central figure, a sculpted male figure, stands in an arched niche, arms outstretched, suggesting a blessing or perhaps a farewell. Two smaller figures flank the monument: a kneeling woman draped in fabric, and a man with a hat standing with his head bowed. The inscription on the monument is not easily deciphered, adding a layer of mystery to the scene. The photograph is likely a documentation of the tomb's grandeur and may hold important clues to the life and legacy of the person commemorated.
