The Funerary Art is present in the sculptures of Cemeteries. The beauty of the sculptures of the headstones, graves and mausoleums, it transmit the most varied emotions through Funerary Art. The Funerary Art is a term used to designate the works done to stay on the graves of the cemeteries. It is a form of representation that is linked to the given context of historical, ideological, social and economic, interpreting the life and death. This interpretation is made through a set of symbols or a narrative work, using various materials such as marble, granite, iron and brass.The funerary art reached its apogee in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and today it is less used because of advancing of the egalitarian and horrible garden cemeteries, without the presence of the beautiful Funerary Art. One of the most striking characteristics of Romanticism mental concerns with the need to preserve the memory of the deceased through a monument celebrations, the most important being the construction of a tomb, perennially, demonstrating the virtues of those who finou. Memories sepulchral, within the evolution of mentalities in the nineteenth century, were increasingly clearly linking up with the notion of family, away from death itself away from the look and smell. The cemetery romantic, modern and with its pomp expressed visually beautiful and so what death and longing had more cruel. Although the symbols used in the Romantic Art tomb are often common to other arts, this symbolism used in the tombs can only be correctly interpreted taking into account the time and the social and cultural context in which they were used, so that any key interpretation pre-defined, can lead to wrong conclusions.
