Elysium: A Gathering of Souls : New Orleans Cemeteries

1997 • 144 pages

Thousands visit New Orleans' cemeteries each year to see the arresting above-ground tombs. Sandra Russell Clark's spellbinding collection of photographs captures art, poetry, history, spirit, and humanity, as well as the solid substance of stone, marble, and wrought iron. The ethereal and tangible are one in these photo images, truly the meeting grounds between the living and the dead. 150 duotones.
