Lambs on Gravestones


Lambs are a common motif on children's gravestones, representing innocence and purity, and of the Lord, the Good Shepherd. They often appear alongside other symbols of childhood, such as toys, stars, and angels. Lambs can also symbolize the hope of resurrection and eternal life. When used in a cemetery setting, lambs on children's gravestones serve as a reminder that even in death, these young lives were still full of potential. The use of lambs on children's gravestones can provide comfort to those who have lost loved ones and help them to remember the beauty of life even in the face of death.
