In its current decline, funereal art is being superseded by the industry of monumental masonry, itself threatened by a bleak future as new forms of funeral practices - such as the scattering of ashes - call the very existence of cemeteries, at least those in larger cities, into question. Everything is deemed irrelevant by modem man that is not related to the here and now. In spite of that, there still exist a large number of sepulchres worth discovering and introducing due to their adherence to classical standards.
