In due time…..when I shall have paid the debt of Nature, my remains will rest here in your midst with those of my kindred and neighbors. It is possible they may be unhonored, neglected, spurned! But, perhaps, years hence …..some wandering stranger, some lone exile may erect over them a humble stone, and thereon, this epitaph, “He was Faithful.”
LAMP
c. 1870
Pair of Kutani vases mounted as lamps. Decorated in red and gold with figures and flowers. Gold-colored lamp shades.
