Stone has such wonderful forms and textures, from polished marble to rough-hewn sandstone. It's the material of some of humankind's earliest tools; in the hands of master masons it reached majestic heights in medieval cathedrals; formed practical yet beautiful cobbled roads underfoot, and has been fashioned into sculpture by artistic hands for thousands of years.
Share your pictures of stone in all its human-shaped manifestations and beauty, from the humble to the sublime.

The Monastery Agia Triada (Holy Trinity), Klimatia, Kerkyra (Corfu) par Sparrow ... Stewart Mcbride, on ipernity
... the building is probably only 12th or 13th century, but I bet the plinth it sits on is really ancient
