Artistic memorialising of life events have occurred since time immemorial. A beautiful painting may serve not only to memorialise the deceased, but to serve as a recording of the people who gathered to celebrate the life of the deceased as well.

A vanishing tradition of recording births and deaths in a family Bible, which has handed down from family to family often provided the only real documentation of a life. For the aristocracy, documentation and memorialisation was done through sculpture and paintings.

It is also probable, if the painting reflects serene imagery, the artist is reflectiing the celebratory element of death - where life becomes renewed in accordance with the Scriptures as outlined in The Bible.
