Family tomb, Columbus Cemetery, Havana, Cuba, 2012

The most fascinating tombs in this cemetery were those that are crumbling. They were originally intended to represent an eternal resting place, yet nature and time have combined over the years to negate any sense of the eternal here. This tomb seems to be caving in, its concrete and marble panels falling into disarray. The early morning sun casts shadows that accelerate the sense of decay.
