EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the life of renowned German composer and organist, Johann Sebastian Bach. The image showcases the register of Bach's wedding to Anna Magdalena Wickeln, which took place on December 3rd, 1721, in the Rectory of the Jacobskirche in Koethen. The marriage document is meticulously crafted with pen and ink on paper by an anonymous artist from the 18th century. It serves as a legal and official testament to their commitment to one another. Handwritten in beautiful script, this manuscript reflects both the importance of this union and the artistic flair that permeated every aspect of Bach's life. Anna Magdalena Wickeln was a singer at the Koethener Hof when she married Bach, exactly one year after his first wife passed away. This event marked a new chapter for Bach personally and professionally. As we delve into this historical artifact, we are transported back in time to witness this joyous occasion unfold within the walls of Koethen's Jakobskirche parish office. The photograph allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also offers us a glimpse into Bach's personal life beyond his musical genius. This remarkable piece from a private collection reminds us that even great composers like Johann Sebastian Bach found love and happiness amidst their creative pursuits.
