Summary

Description
English: Marble funerary relief, irregular in shape, dedicated to the memory of Nigel McKechnie CE (1861-1893) in the English Cemetery in Málaga, Spain. It is surmounted by a large anchor (a symbol of hope in sailors' tombs) that closes on a withered tree and, completing the whole, a scroll on the front with the epitaph. The corporeal anchor of McKechnie's grave is one of the most beautiful in the cemetery. The inscription reads: "To / the loving memory / of Nigel McKechnie CE / who died at Málaga / on tthe 5th June 1893 / aged 32 years / What's grave, what's noble, / let's do it; / and make death proud to take us."
