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.

"Ode To A Cemetery" was published in November, 2024 by Hirmer Verlag with text by poet Cole Swensen.

Throughout four seasons, Jacobson’s book captures the spirit of this verdant,
history-drenched pastoral cemetery.
