How Far Should Closet Rod Be From The Wall

Here I am! ^ ^

Hi!
I'm Chiara, and I have two galleries on Deviantart, too: http://Mordaunt.deviantart.com and http://TimeMord.deviantart.com .
I'd wish to use this space, to condivide my sketches, drawing and thoughts about the things I love best: especially tv-shows, comics, books, and graveyards. Perhaps this sounds a bit macabre, but I love strolling in graveyards and watching and drawing the graves and their stone angels. ^^ I think that those sites are plenty of art, history and beauty.
Most of my graves sketches are from my homecity's graveyard, the Monumental Cemetery of Staglieno, Genoa. Perhaps one day I tell you more diffusely about "my" cemetery, if you please! 
Someday I'd like to take sketches from other greveyards too.
Now, today's sketches! ^^

This is the family Gallino grave ,
dating 1894; sculpted by Giacomo Moreno;
situated in the XXXI niche of the lower eastern arcade,
Monumental Cemetery of Staglieno, Genoa.

It is a text example of "Bourgeois Realism", with faces, clothes of the age and accessories replicated in detail. The thematic is also classic,  portraying the mourning of the family on the departed's grave. It is not one of the most famous graves in the cemetery, but I love it very much to convey the idea of "life continuing" through three generations, and because I find unsettling the idea of statues homaging another statue... XD
