Bethany Eden Jacobson moved across the street from the Green-Wood Cemetery over a decade ago and has been photographing it ever since. Green-Wood, founded in 1838, was a leader in the Rural Cemetery
movement in America. Its 478 acres encompass magnificent grounds, grand architecture and
world-class statuary. Throughout four seasons, Jacobson’s book captures the spirit of this
verdant, history-drenched pastoral cemetery.

The book "Ode To A Cemetery" will be published this fall by Hirmer with text by poet Cole Swensen.
