| Description | Mural monument to Augustine Curtis I (d.1731) and Augustine Curtis II (d.1732) by James Barrett in the Church of St Peter Mancroft, Norwich. A single column on a church monument is thought to symbolise the death of a person without heirs, inspired by 2 Samuel 18:18 "Absolom in his lifetime had taken and reared up a pillar ... for he said I have no son to keep my name in remembrance and he called the pillar after his own name". (Source: H. D’Aveney, Notes and Queries July-December 1864, Matthew Craske, The Silent Rhetoric of the Body. A History of Monumental Sculpture and Commemorative Art in England, 1720-1770, 2007, pp.188-181, re monument in St Andrew's Church, Colton, Norfolk to "Mrs Brown" (Elizabeth Browne) (1667-1741): A single column was popular in Norfolk. Its use for a family without heirs is documented for the Monument to Augustine Curtis I (d.1731) and Augustine Curtis II (d.1732) by James Barrett in St Peter Mancroft, Norwich (see imageFile:Monument to Augustine Curtis I (d.1731) and Augustine Curtis II (d.1732) Church of St Peter Mancroft Norwich.jpg). Barrett had earlier designed a comparable monument to George Warren (d.1728) in All Saints, Horstead (see image[1]). There is another contemporary version to Mrs Hodgson †1743 at St Nicholas, Dersingham by Francis Stafford.[2]) |
