Frantisek Rint was a Bohemian carpenter. In 1867 he was brought in to rearrange the massive piles of Medieval bones that filled the Sedlec Ossuary. This building was a sanctified building within a large and popular Czech cemetery ( supposedly sprinkled with earth from Golgotha by an ancient abbot pilgrim).

The fame of the place caused great demand for burials, especially after the black plague and wars. The bones of the long dead began being exhumed and stored in the basement of the chapel (legend says one monk spent all his later years just exhuming and organizing the bones of 40-70k people) 400 years later local nobility hired the man Rint to redesign the bone piles, and his elaborate designs now attract 200,000 visitors annually. Over 3 years, his labor created 4 chandeliers, a massive coat of arms of his benefactors, the Schwarzenberger family, and his own bone signature.

When you went travelling, did you ever visit the Sedlec Ossuary in the Czech Republic? What do you think of it in terms of it being a work of art?

The opportunity never came up. When Armand and I began our travels, Czechia, as most in Central Europe, was still occupied by German soldiers and after that, well. Europe in my mind had offered all it could in terms of discovery and we both wanted something new in terms of culture.

But It is that, it's a work of art. It's macabre, morbid, – a symbol of devotion. A graveyard in church pews. I think it's as fascinating as the Wadi al-Salam in Najaf or the St. Louis cemetery in New Orleans. Just because a body isn't in the ground doesn't mean it's being disrespectful to life and why not call it art?
