Muslim Wedding, 1860 - A Glimpse into Syrian Tradition
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from 1860 showcases a vibrant Muslim wedding procession in the bustling streets of Latakia, Syria. The wood engraving, created by an English artist, beautifully captures the essence of this cultural celebration. As the crowd gathers along the street, men and women dressed in traditional attire eagerly await the arrival of the bride and groom. The groom proudly leads the way with a rifle slung over his shoulder, symbolizing strength and protection for his new family. Accompanied by lively music played on horns and drums, their joyous procession fills the air with infectious energy. The bride's radiant presence shines through as she walks gracefully alongside her beloved partner. Adorned in exquisite garments and adorned with intricate jewelry, she represents elegance and grace amidst this festive occasion. Amidst all these festivities lies a glimpse into daily life during that era - men engaged in conversation while smoking pipes; children curiously observing from doorways; women chatting animatedly as they watch this grand spectacle unfold before them. This wood engraving serves as a testament to both historical documentation and artistic expression. It allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this particular moment but also gain insight into Middle Eastern customs that have been cherished for centuries. Through this image captured over 150 years ago, we are transported back to witness firsthand how love is celebrated within Syrian culture – an enduring tradition that continues to thrive today.
