Jonas Chickering was born on this day in 1798. He was a philanthropist, musician and one of the foremost manufacturers of pianos in America. Chickering's marble memorial (1872) is by sculptor Thomas Ball, and is titled "The Realization of Faith." In it the Angel of Death, a winged youth, is lifting the veil from the eyes of Faith, a kneeling female figure, who until now has seen 'as through a glass darkly' but now sees 'face to face.' On the base below is a bas-relief featuring the muse of music holding a lyre of Apollo with a broken string, symbolizing a life cut short. Now is the perfect time to visit the lot as a beautiful Star Magnolia is currently in bloom above the striking scene. Jonas Chickering (1798-1853) Lot 2282 Magnolia Ave (fb)
