His blue plaque is still one of the all timers.

The stained glass window honouring him at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he was a fellow, is also a nice touch.

He's buried at the top of my road. Sadly, no diagram on the his tombstone

But it is in the intersection of you road & graveyards.
That'll have to do.

Did his heirs not realise its graphic design pleasingness?

annerooney.bsky.social•82 days ago

I guess they didn't. Such a wasted opportunity 😪

Probably there were heirs who appreciated design and heirs who were responsible for the tombstone, but not much of an overlap. Look, I know that's unclear ... if only there was a way to explain it better...

Possibly a helpful illustration?

I'll circle around and get back to you on that.
