Gravestone for a young man, created in close collaboration with his family. The relief of a saxophone carved out of the stone and its recessed shadow refer to Valentin's passion: playing and composing music.

Three other symbols are carved into the back of the stone: a pine cone, a ginkgo leaf and a scallop shell — each with a unique meaning for his family
