Description

This memorial, located 40 meters south of the nave of the Church of St. Peter, dates back to 1736 and is made of limestone. It features a rectangular shape with a coved segmental set-back top. The design includes a pair of Corinthian columns that support an entablature, framing a bowed oval inscription panel. Decorative elements include leaf trails in the top spandrels, along with a skull, crossed bones, and an hourglass in the lower spandrels. At the coved top, there is a flying cherub blowing a trumpet, accompanied by three winged cherub heads.
