Do you have any information of the leaping board grave markers such as that of George du Maurier and Sir Thomas Armstrong?

Leaping board grave markers, like those of George du Maurier and Sir Thomas Armstrong, are distinctive in their design, often featuring a flat, horizontal stone that appears to "leap" off the ground. These markers are typically associated with certain artistic movements and can symbolize a transition or elevation in the afterlife. Du Maurier, a notable author and illustrator, and Armstrong, a prominent painter, are both commemorated with such markers, reflecting their contributions to art and literature. Their graves often attract visitors interested in their legacies and the unique style of their memorials.
