The Art and Architecture of Death

Merry Christmas

The Soffels always decorate their mausoleum in Mount Lebanon Cemetery with a wreath for Christmas.

The polished Doric columns seem almost out of place on this otherwise rustic mausoleum. The effect is like the effect of a mixed metaphor: it draws attention to itself, though you understand what it means.
