EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing engraving titled "Wanting to marry by proxy; A bashful bridegroom" we are transported back to the 19th century, where a shy groom finds himself in an unusual predicament. The image captures a moment of anticipation and nervousness as the bridegroom stands before a majestic stone church, ready to embark on his journey towards matrimony. Clad in fashionable attire of the era, the bashful groom is surrounded by architectural beauty that serves as a backdrop for this significant event. The monument-like structure behind him symbolizes not only the grandeur of the occasion but also represents his commitment to marriage. The engraving hints at a unique twist - marrying by proxy. This practice allowed individuals who were unable or unwilling to attend their own wedding ceremonies to be represented by someone else. It adds an element of mystery and curiosity, leaving us wondering about the reasons behind such an arrangement. As we delve into this artwork from The Days Doings publication dated December 24th, 1870, we can't help but appreciate its artistic value and historical significance. Through intricate details and skilled craftsmanship, it offers us a glimpse into both societal norms and personal emotions surrounding marriage during that time period. This print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection invites us to ponder upon love's complexities while marveling at the artistry captured within its frame.
