NO TOMBSTONES IN DEVOTIONAL GARDENS - NOTHING USED BUT BRONZE MEMORIALS The “Finding of Moses’' memorial was constructed of finest marble and the scene from the Bible depicts the finding of the baby Moses in a basket with Pharaoh's daughter. It stands life size in a ceramic tile pool and an artificial water overflow adds to its beauty and impressiveness. * MARBLE SCULPTURE BEGAN WITH FIGURE OF CHRIST The sculpture of marble Is a highly skilled, delicate task. Because of the unknown properties of heat and volcanic action far below the earth’s surface during marble formation, it’s exact characteristics are something of a gamble. Anywhere there might have been a soft or irregular spot which would have had to be chiseled out and filled like a tooth. This would not be too bad if It happened on an Ihconspicious part, but if it came on a face, the entire work would be ruined. The marble used in Devotional Gardens was hand-carved of best quality clear white Ravaccione statuary marble. It is quarried from the mountains high above Carrara. Italy. This marble is beautifully clear and fine-grained, and these qualities have made it the favorite medium of sculptors since classical times. It was from this dis trict that blocks were quarried for the masterpieces of Canova, Leonardo de Vinci and Michelangelo.
