The mausoleum is of Maurice de Saxe [Moritz von Sachsen], Marshal General of the King's camps and armies of France, highly decorated, highly regarded. He got Chateau de Chambord for his duties from the king.
Buried in St. Thomas in Straßburg, France.

Death is what it is, and it comes to all.
This sculpture is amazing, the spaces between the joints and all, and the photo captures it well.

Thank you :-) The sculpture is really amazing, and so many tourists that go to Straßburg miss out on it, because they only go to the cathedral.

Awesome detail. This is from a time when people didn't sugarcoat death in euphemisms.

Right, and I hate it, when they dance around the subject.
