EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An Unprecedented Wedding" by Achille Beltrame captures a truly extraordinary moment in history. The image showcases an elderly groom, aged 108 years old, who decided to tie the knot once again in Macedonia. His bride, also a widow, is a mere thirty years old, creating quite an age gap between the couple. The wedding ceremony itself was nothing short of remarkable, with traditional customs and rituals being observed amidst the picturesque backdrop of the Macedonian village. The photograph beautifully depicts villagers gathered around as witnesses to this unique union. In attendance were not only their nine children but also an astonishing sixty-three grandchildren of the groom. The scene is filled with vibrant colors and joyous celebrations as couples dance together in traditional attire adorned with garlands and flowers. The atmosphere exudes happiness and love as everyone comes together to honor this special occasion. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday on March 2nd, 1930 perfectly encapsulates this one-of-a-kind event that defied societal norms and expectations. It serves as a testament to the power of love transcending age boundaries and cultural traditions. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to glimpse into a moment frozen in time - a celebration that will forever be remembered for its uniqueness and beauty within Balkan culture.
