Lassesen Grave Monument
Description
One Of The Oldest Cemeteries In Sioux Falls, Sd Is The Mount Pleasant Cemetery (Http://Www.Mtpleasantsf.Com). It Is My Favorite Place To Look For Monuments And Stones To Model As There Is A Great Variety Of Sizes, Shapes And Styles. This Particular Grave Monument Was Erected To The Memory Of A Toddler Who Died Just Over A Year Of Age. It Is One Of Many Sad Reminders Of The High Child Mortality Rate Of The 19Th And Early 20Th Centuries. I Had A Difficult Time Reading Parts Of The Inscription On Account Of The Lighting, The Softening Of The Lettering From The Elements And A Bit Of Lichen And Moss Here And There, But My Model Helped Me To Read It More Clearly. The Original Monument Here Stands Roughly About One Meter Tall, But I Didn'T Remember To Include The Scale In My Model. I Created It From Roughly 30 Photos Taken With A Nikon D3100 In Raw Mode, Converted To 16-Bit Tifs In Adobe Lightroom And Then Imported Into Agisoft Photoscan For Modeling.
