The grave of the mosaic worker Odorico was created in the first half of the 20th century.
The Odorico family comes from Italy. Two generations developed a mosaic business in France, during the first half of the 20th century, using Art-Deco style to offer original motifs and a clever mix of colors.
Obviously, the grave is covered by pink and gold mosaic, which is original and highlights a poppy flower pattern (which means eternal sleep). The grey-granite cross and the “IHS” abbreviation (from the latin “Iesus Hominum Salvator”) refers to the catholic religion of the family.
