HIDDEN Rookwood Stonemasons brings the general public up close to see the traditional, finely honed, hand-carving skills of living stonemasons. Focusing on gothic architectural details, these new stoneworks are set in the context of Rookwood Cemetery’s historic array of stonemason carvings on headstones, vaults and memorials, spanning the past 150 years.
