This image presents two photographs of a marble tombstone, showcasing the effects of UV-A blacklight illumination on the inscription and design elements.

**Top Image:**

The top photograph displays the tombstone under natural daylight conditions. The name "JEFF DAVIS PISTOLE" is prominently inscribed in a decorative font, with the dates "SEPT 15 1861 JULY 9 1902" written below it. A thin line separates these two sections of text.

In contrast, the bottom photograph captures the same tombstone illuminated by a 365 nm UV-A blacklight. This intense light reveals previously invisible details and highlights the inscription's intricate design features. The background of the image is darkened to enhance the visibility of the illuminated areas.

The use of UV-A blacklight in the second photograph allows for a detailed examination of the marble tombstone, highlighting its design elements and the inscription's fine details. This method provides valuable insights into the craftsmanship and materials used in creating the tombstone. – AI vision
