In 1878, this memorial piece was dedicated, embodying the passage of time and the ever-changing landscape of human progress. On the front, a youthful figure is carved into a cameo, capturing the essence of a bygone era. As time marches forward into the 19th century, technological innovations usher in a new age, and the world evolves. On the reverse side, the same figure is portrayed as an elderly man in a photograph, a medium that has replaced the intricate art of cameo-carving. Dedicated 1878.
