Summary
[edit]DescriptionWilliam P. Beecher's Grave.jpg |
Español: Tumba del comerciante estadounidense William P. Beecher (1797-1850) en el Cementerio Inglés de Málaga. Se trata de un mausoleo realizado en mármol blanco, compuesto de un pedestal cuadrangular escalonado y un sarcófago. En el basamento de la tumba, un medallón recoge la figura de un dios Mercurio, con su característico bastón (caduceo) y una bolsa de monedas, surcando las aguas a lomos de un delfín, evidentes atributos de las actividades mercantiles del finado. El sarcófago se adorna con un relieve que representa una alegoría de la libertad, sustentando una bandera y un escudo con la leyenda «LIBERTY». En la parte superior circundan a la figura central trece estrellas, posible alusión a las trece colonias que fueron germen de los actuales Estados Unidos de América en el momento de independizarse de Gran Bretaña. En el pedestal se puede leer la siguiente inscripción: «William P. Beecher / Citizen of the U.S. of America / Born in New Haven Connecticut, XII January MDCCLXXXXVII / Died in Málaga / XXIV October MDCCCL / As a tribute to departed worth, / this tomb, / erected by his mourning friends, / is destined / to commemorate the merits of / his useful life» («William P. Beecher / Ciudadano de los EE. UU. de América / Nacido en New Haven Connecticut, XII Enero MDCCLXXXXVII / Fallecido en Málaga / XXIV Octubre MDCCCL / Como homenaje al valor del difunto, / esta tumba, / erigida por sus amigos de luto, / está destinada / a conmemorar los méritos de / su provechosa vida».)
English: The American businessman William P. Beecher's grave (1797-1850), American businessman, at the English Cemetery in Málaga. It is a mausoleum made of white marble and composed of a stepped quadrangular pedestal and a sarcophagus. On the base of the tomb, a medallion depicts the figure of a god Mercury, with his characteristic staff (caduceus) and a bag of coins, sailing the waters on the back of a dolphin, obvious attributes of the deceased's mercantile activities. The sarcophagus is adorned with a relief depicting an allegory of freedom, holding a flag and a shield with the legend "LIBERTY". At the top, thirteen stars surround the central figure, a possible allusion to the thirteen colonies that were the seeds of the current United States of America at the time of its independence from Great Britain. On the pedestal, the inscription read: "William P. Beecher / Citizen of the U.S. of America / Born in New Haven Connecticut, XII January MDCCLXXXXVII / Died in Málaga / XXIV October MDCCCL / As a tribute to departed worth, / this tomb, / erected by his mourning friends, / is destined / to commemorate the merits of / his useful life". |
