It's time I posted some of the pictures I took on San Clemente. There's no point making them 'mystery photos', as I doubt that many of you will have visited the island - tell me if I'm wrong.There are two large tombs, one on either side of the nave. They are the tombs of Petro (sic) and Giorgio Mauroceno (Morosini). Each monument has a pair of Atlantes supporting a sarcophagus. This image shows the head of one of the Atlantes on Giorgio's tomb. There is an inscription on each tomb, but they're in Latin. All I can tell you is that Giorgio died in 1676.
