Although the passage of time has blurred the meaning of the images and symbols used on the tombstones and monuments of St John's Co-Cathedral, the iconography continues to fascinate many people today. What do the symbols on the tombstones and monuments in St John's Co-Cathedral reveal about the deceased and those who created the memorials? Members of the public who would like to know more about the complex symbolic iconography on the marble tombstones and monuments of St John's Co-Cathedral are invited to Flimkien għal Ambjent Aħjar's (FAA) first heritage talk for 2105, when Dane Munro, an authority on St John's marbles, and author of the definitive book Memento Mori, will reveal all this in his interesting and perhaps controversial lecture about "the most beautiful floor in the world". In this lecture, specifically prepared for FAA Dane Munro will interpret the symbols on the tombstones and monuments of St John's Co-Cathedral using digital photo enhancing. Munro will also explore the relationship between the viewer and this complex symbolic iconography in a way that has never been done before.
