A Quincy Memorial is Your Guarantee of a Quality Memorial
|
Memorials of the excedra (bench) type range from the simple garden bench to many of
the most impressive monuments of ancient and modern times. Symbolizing Rest, Repose
and Contemplation, memorials of this type had their origin in the spacious seats or exedrae
used by the philosophers for their disputations in ancient temples and basilicas. The
ancient examples are usually semicircular or elliptical in form, but in modern adaptations,
the excedra is often rectangular in form. The benches pictured on this page illustrate a few
examples of the contemporary form, best adapted to plots of larger dimensions.
