A good example of how subtle variations differentiate classical Doric mausoleums. Here we have the standard Doric columns, fluted, in front of a rusticated stone mausoleum. It probably dates from about 1900.

Rowe-Huston Mausoleum, Homewood Cemetery

Wherry Monument, Homewood Cemetery
A fine piece of sculpture, although in mourners there is a very fine line between contemplative and bored. The steps up to the family plot bear the name of James Wherry, who died in 1899, and from the style that seems like a good date for this monument.

Reilly Mausoleum, Calvary Cemetery
It is rare to find a classical mausoleum with explicitly Christian symbols—except in Catholic cemeteries, where it is very much the norm. This fine little Doric temple bears a cross on the top, broadcasting the unambiguous message, “Tasteful but not pagan.”

M. K. McMullin Mausoleum, Homewood Cemetery
A simple and roughly cube-shaped classical mausoleum from 1921 or before (Matthew K. McMullin was buried here in 1921). It attracts a lot more attention in the fall when the tree behind it lights up.

Weinman Mausoleum, Homewood Cemetery
KONICA MINOLTA DIGITAL CAMERA Probably built in the 1920s (its earliest residents, Anna Barbara and Jacob Weinman, moved in in 1927), this is a simple rectangular mausoleum with Doric details. The stained glass inside is attractive.
