EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving, taken from Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages (1796), depicts the Roman goddess Juno, the revered deity of marriage, graciously bestowing her blessings upon a newlywed couple and their mother. Juno, identified by her iconic aura and veil adorned with peacock feathers, extends her hand in a gesture of approval and protection, symbolizing the divine bond of matrimony. The bride, elegantly attired in a flowing white gown, holds a veil over her head, signifying her transition into married life and her submission to her husband's authority. The groom, dressed in the traditional Roman toga, stands proudly by her side, his expression reflecting a sense of joy and contentment. The mother of the bride, dressed in a richly colored robe, offers her support and guidance, her face etched with the pride and happiness of her daughter's union. The intricate details of the engraving, from the delicate folds of the garments to the expressive facial features, transport us back in time to the ancient Roman world, where the sanctity of marriage was celebrated with grandeur and reverence. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of love and the importance of family in our lives.
