A newly discovered photograph of the tombstone of Patriarch Meletios II

View through CrossRef
Since the publication of our article on the tombstone of Meletios II in Muswell Hill, London, in Byzantine and Modern Greek Studies 41.2 (2017), a photograph, probably taken in the 1920s and showing the tombstone in the garden of North Bank, has come to light. At that time, the tombstone was in much better condition than it now is. It had not then broken into pieces. The jagged edge at the bottom of the tombstone may be an indication that it is not complete.
