laminated photograph

Colour photograph, laminated, showing a small family burial ground on Brion Island (Île Brion), Îles-de-la-Madeleine. Several plain white headstones stand scattered among low spruce trees, tall grass, and wildflowers on an open, windswept hillside, with rolling moorland visible in the background. One low, partially obscured monument at the far left edge bears a faintly legible inscription. The weathered, modest markers and encroaching vegetation suggest a burial plot no longer in active use.

The photograph documents a family cemetery associated with the Dingwell family, longtime residents of Brion Island, and forms part of a set of images recording the island’s built and cultural heritage.
