Stone grotto with a statue and sign beside a paved walkway.

Posted to Beaver Island Historical Society (Facebook page) by Beaver Island Historical Society on 2018-10-10 18:20:22. Caption as posted: "The Arranmore Grotto at the Holy Cross Cemetery on Beaver Island was built in partnership between Islanders and Irish relatives from Arranmore Ireland. Dick and Amy Burris created it with stones from Beaver and special rocks that were donated by Island contributors."

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A low grotto made of rounded stones forms an arched niche containing a robed statue. A dark sign is mounted on the right side, and a paved walkway leads across the foreground. Grass, shrubs, mature trees, and white utility buildings are visible behind the structure.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The catalogue record identifies the image as posted by the Beaver Island Historical Society on 2018-10-10. Its caption identifies the structure as the Arranmore Grotto at Holy Cross Cemetery and credits Dick and Amy Burris, Islanders, Irish relatives from Arranmore, Ireland, and contributors of stones.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

The smaller lettering on the sign and the small plaque near the statue cannot be made out.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
