Скачать или смотреть This Is The Most Loyal Tomb Ever Built | A Funeral In Stone |

Philippe Pot (1428–1493) was a Knight of the Golden Fleece and counselor to the Dukes of Burgundy — a man of immense influence in the 15th century.
His tomb, sculpted around 1480 by Antoine Le Moiturier, shows him carried by eight hooded mourners, their faces veiled in grief.
At his feet rests a lion, the symbol of courage; along the base runs his chosen epitaph: “Expectavi Salutare Tuum, Domine” — “I have waited for Thy salvation, O Lord.”

It is not a monument to power, but to faith and service.
The faceless bearers lift him still — not as a lord, but as a soul.
