EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century colored engraving captures a momentous occasion in Spanish history - the marriage of Maria Mercedes of Orleans and Bourbon to Alfonso XII, King of Spain. The image showcases the grandeur and elegance that surrounded this royal wedding. In this horizontal composition, we see the radiant couple at the center, exuding regal charm. Alfonso XII stands tall in his majestic attire, while Maria Mercedes looks resplendent in her bridal gown adorned with intricate lace and jewels. Their expressions reflect both excitement and solemnity as they embark on their journey together. The artist, Santiago Ortega, has skillfully depicted every detail of this historic event. From the ornate decorations adorning the venue to the finely dressed attendees witnessing this union, no aspect is overlooked. The vibrant colors used in this engraving add an enchanting touch to an already remarkable scene. This print not only serves as a visual testament to love but also offers a glimpse into Spanish culture during that era. It symbolizes unity between two influential families - Orleans and Bourbon - whose alliance would shape Spain's future. As we admire this artwork today, it reminds us of the enduring power of love and how historical events can be preserved through art for generations to come.
