Description

Print showing a scene of three people--a man, a woman and a child--crying near a grave monument. The monument consists of a covered urn on a square pedestal. The scene is framed by tall trees on either side. The leaves of the trees, bushes, and grass are painted green with watercolor. There is a section of blue watercolor in the background, creating the appearance of a body of water. The man's vest, woman's dress, and child's dress are painted blue. There is no dedication written on the monument. The center bottom of the print has the title, "Though We Die Yet We Shall Live Again". The lower right bears the mark, "Published by Lewis Robinson, Reading, Vt."
