Sir Ralph Hare (1623) of alabaster: tomb chest with upper structure with two flanking columns and obelisks on top. This is shown left, the second illustration. His actual tomb is shown above this: simple tomb chest with arms on the longer aspect and an inscription on the shorter. (left) Sir Thomas Hare (1693) White marble. A semi-reclining figure wearing a wig, yet Roman armour. On tomb chest with thickly fluted cornice. No backing. Attributed to Grinling Gibbons (left & below) Susanna Hare (1741) Semi-reclining figure in loose robes against a classical reredos with two cherubs' heads in the clouds. Of white and grey marble. By Peter Scheemakers. (left & below) Sarah Hare (1744) She died age eighteen. In her will of August 10th 1743, she requested '...I desire my face and hands made in wax with a piece of crimson satin thrown like a garment in a picture hair upon my head and put in a case of mahogany with a glass before and fix'd up so near the place were my corps lyes as it can be with my name and time of Death put upon the case in a manner most desirable if I do not execute this in my life I desire it may be done after my Death.' This was carried out to the letter and this rather horrifying life like effigy can still be seen in what appears to be a cupboard; a demi-effigy wearing clothes of the period. It is likely that the face and hands were made from impressions taken either in life or shortly after death. The monument was restored in 1984 by Miss Jean Frazer (formerly of Madam Tussauds), who, of course, restored the wax, and by Mrs Judith Dore (formerly Senior Conservation Officer to the Victoria and Albert Museum) who restored the textiles. (right top and below closed cabinet; and below) Mary Hare (1801) Standing figure of Hope with anchor leaning on an urn against which rests an upturned torch. All of white marble against a gray obelisk. By McDaniel.(right) Sir Thomas Hare (1834) Tablet of white marble with figures of Faith, Hope and Charity, with the inscription between them. (right)
