We begin with "Sir Hugo as a three-year old held by Groom in a Stable, " an endearing oil painting that showcases the innocence and purity of young love. The Bride Josine's portrait on cardboard exudes grace and elegance, reminding us of the beauty that accompanies union. Traveling further back in time, "El Cids Daughters" takes us to medieval Spain through vibrant brushstrokes. This masterpiece from Romance XLIV of the Tesoro de Romanceros captures familial ties within the context of matrimony. In contrast to these idyllic depictions, "There I Was Waiting At The Church" presents an intriguing twist with its colorful photo. It invites contemplation about missed connections or perhaps unexpected turns in marital journeys. Le Bas Bleu offers a glimpse into 19th-century society through its vivid lithograph. This artistic portrayal challenges societal norms surrounding women's intellectual pursuits within wedlock. The engraving titled "A wife taking a stick to her drunken husband" delves into darker aspects of marriage dynamics prevalent during the 19th century—a reminder that not all unions were harmonious or idealized. Moving forward in history brings us face-to-face with Anne Boleyn's tragic fate at the Tower of London—an unsettling chromolithograph capturing one woman's untimely demise amidst political intrigue tied to her marriage vows. From Europe to Southeast Asia comes "Malay Bride and Bridesmaids, " offering insight into cultural traditions surrounding nuptials beyond Western customs—celebrating diversity while highlighting shared human experiences.
