EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Fille Armenienne, que l on conduit al Eglise pour la marier, 1714-15" takes us back to 18th century Armenia. The image beautifully captures a ceremonial moment as a young Armenian woman is led to the church for her wedding. Her exquisite ceremonial dress showcases the rich cultural heritage of this country. The engraving, created by an unknown artist during that era, displays remarkable attention to detail. The etching technique used adds depth and texture to the image, making it even more visually striking. The portrait depicts a solemn yet elegant scene with the bride standing tall in her traditional attire. She wears a veil that partially covers her face, adding an air of mystery and anticipation for what lies ahead in her marital journey. Jean Baptiste Van Mour's work has been preserved at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in France. This particular piece from his collection provides us with a glimpse into Levantine customs and traditions surrounding marriage during that time period. As we admire this historical photograph print today, we are reminded of the enduring beauty found within different cultures across centuries. It serves as a testament to love's timeless nature and our shared human experiences when it comes to celebrating unions between two individuals.
