Original text:

The Von Zedtwitz memorial, illustrated in the photograph herewith, is one of the finest private memorials that has been erected the past year. It embodies an unusually dignified architectural rendering of the exedra form of memorial and the symbolic group that forms the central feature of the design is an original conception by Gilbert Bayes, the well-known London sculptor.

The memorial stands in Cave Hill Cemetery, Louisville, Ky., and is substantially 30 by 20 feet in ground dimensions. The statues, about 8 feet high, are portraits of Mary Guendaline Byrd Caldwell, who died in October, 1909, and Mary Elizabeth Breckenridge Caldwell, the Baroness Von Zedtwitz. The contract was made by the baroness, who died in December, 1910, some months subsequent to making the contract, which was executed at her chateau in Thun, Switzerland. This important group is cut from one piece of Italian marble and was executed under the personal supervision of the sculptor in London, Gilbert Bayes, who has produced many important works and been awarded prizes by art societies in England.

The work was executed and erected by the Harrison Granite Co., of New York City.
