EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "MONTENEGRO: WEDDING, 1880" takes us back in time to witness a traditional Montenegrin wedding. The wood engraving, created by an English artist in the year 1880, beautifully captures the essence of this Balkan celebration. The image showcases a late afternoon scene set against the stunning backdrop of Montenegro's majestic mountains. A procession is underway as the bride and groom make their way towards their future together. The groom stands tall and proud, donning traditional Montenegrin attire while holding a rifle symbolizing his strength and protection for his new family. The bride appears radiant in her wedding gown, adorned with intricate details that reflect her culture's rich traditions. Surrounding them are members of their community, dressed in customary clothing, who join in on this joyous occasion. This wood engraving not only offers us a glimpse into the past but also highlights the significance of marriage within Montenegrin society. It serves as a reminder of how deeply rooted customs and rituals can shape our understanding of love and commitment. As we admire this historical piece from The Granger Collection's archives, it transports us to another era where timeless traditions were celebrated amidst breathtaking landscapes.
