Bigelow Chapel 3

[click image to enlarge]

I wonder if Quincy architect, Gridley Bryant, envisioned what the Bigelow Chapel in Mt. Auburn Cemetery would look like in its fall setting almost 170 years after helping to design it with Dr. Jacob Bigelow. The Quincy granite and autumn colors are a beautiful contrast together. You can see a springtime post of the chapel here and a monochrome image here.

Bigelow Chapel 2

[click image to enlarge]

I've posted a little different angle of the Bigelow Chapel,today. If you read yesterday's post you will know that this amazing Gothic Revival structure was made with Quincy granite and is located in the Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge. I like this monochrome view with the man sitting on the bench to the right for scale.
