Description
The mausoleum of Joseph Hudson, built from Portland stone, is located in Kensal Green Cemetery and dates to around 1850. The front of the mausoleum is elaborately decorated, featuring a pylon-shaped doorway that has been blocked. This doorway is surrounded by a border adorned with poppies, which symbolize the sleep of death. Flanking pilasters are decorated with strips carved with passion flowers. Below the cavetto cornice is a frieze with a meander pattern, and the eared pediment, which includes an anthemion antefix, features acanthus scrolls and a triangular shape. The sides of the mausoleum are simpler, with inset panels.
