Lourmarin Cemetery #2: Henri Bosco

Appropriately, the cemetery in which the writer Henri Bosco is buried is just off Avenue Henri Bosco. And interestingly, this road sign (complete with the author's dates) seems more like a memorial.


But this of course is Henri Bosco's real memorial, the cross now covered in shell and stone tributes, which I found interesting for an author who (dare I say it) is not the person who is the main attraction in  the cemetery.

'HENRI
BOSCO
1888 – 1976'
