EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning engraving captures the wedding of Rodrigo Diaz, also known as El Cid, and Chimene in a scene from "Le Cid" dating back to 1802. The intricate details and emotions portrayed in this illustration truly bring the love story of these legendary figures to life.
The artist, J.G. Herder, beautifully depicts the union of these two iconic characters from Guillen de Castro's poem that inspired Pierre Corneille's play. The elegance and grace of the bride and groom are evident in their regal attire and tender expressions.
As we gaze upon this historical moment frozen in time, we can't help but be transported back to the 17th century when chivalry and romance reigned supreme. The delicate brushstrokes and fine lines capture every nuance of emotion on the faces of Rodrigo and Chimene as they exchange vows before their loved ones.
This enchanting print serves as a reminder of the enduring power of love throughout centuries past. It is a testament to the timeless nature of human connection and commitment that transcends time itself.
Let this exquisite engraving serve as a symbol of everlasting love and devotion for all who behold it, just like Rodrigo (Rodrigue) Diaz count of Bivar (El Cid)and Chimene did on their special day so many years ago.
