Summary
[edit]DescriptionFig Tree Tomb (3).jpg |
Showing the Fig Tree Tomb, in St Mary's Churchyard, Watford, London, England. This was a 19th-century curiosity. A fig tree was growing out of an unnamed tomb, and the legend had it that an atheist man or woman had hoped that if there were a god, then they would show some evidence of existence in the tomb - and that evidence was thought to be the fig tree. In the picture you can see the trunk of the tree growing from under the stone lid. The card is postmarked 1907.
