The mausoleum is opened and a wreath laid once a year in either March or April as part of the Founders Day activities. History The original intent of the Stanfords was to build a family mansion here. They had only got as far as planting a Arizona Cactus Garden cactus garden still present before the death of their only son. They changed their plans to the building of a university instead. Nearby is a memorial the Angel of Grief to Jane Stanford s brother, Henry Clay Lathrop. This memorial is a 1908 copy of a 1901 copy of an 1894 statue by the prominent American sculptor William Wetmore Story . Appearance The mausoleum has sphinxes on both the front and the back. The back ones are Greek and female with naked breasts. They were originally on the front but the Stanfords disapproved of them and replaced them with Egyptian style male sphinxes and moved the female sphinxes to the back.
