EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Roman wedding ceremony, transporting us back in time to witness this sacred union. The bride and groom stand hand in hand, their love and commitment sealed by the presence of the goddess Juno Pronuba. As they embrace each other, two playful cupids soar above them, adorning the scene with garlands and foliage. The illustration is a remarkable depiction from Pietro Santi Bartoli's Admiranda Romanarum Antiquitatum, dating back to 1660. It beautifully showcases the ceremonial rituals that were an integral part of ancient Roman weddings. This handcoloured copperplate engraving by Corsi brings these historical customs to life with its intricate details and vibrant colors. Beyond its artistic beauty, this image offers us a glimpse into the fashion and history of that era. The costumes worn by both bride and groom reflect the ancient Roman style, adding an extra layer of authenticity to this visual narrative. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's collection curated by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of how love has transcended time throughout human history. Whether it be in ancient Rome or modern times, marriage remains a sacred sacrament celebrated across cultures worldwide.
