EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting 18th century image of a Normandy wedding procession, captured in the Pays de Caux region of France. The bride, resplendent in her wedding finery, rides atop a horse, accompanied by her entourage, who all travel on horse or donkey-back. The joyous occasion is preceded by a lively group of musicians, adding to the festive atmosphere. The drummer, the only one not mounted, keeps the rhythm for the procession, his steady beat echoing through the countryside. This historical photograph, titled "La mariee de Pays de Caux," offers a glimpse into the regional customs and traditions of a bygone era. The bride's elegant dress, adorned with intricate lace and ribbons, is a testament to the care and attention given to the bride's appearance on her wedding day. The musicians, dressed in their colorful attire, add a sense of celebration and merriment to the scene. The use of horses and donkeys for transportation was a common practice during this time period, reflecting the rural nature of the region. The bride's horse is led by a groom or servant, ensuring her safe and comfortable journey. The donkeys, carrying the bride's entourage, add to the rustic charm of the scene. This photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and traditions of the Normandy region in France. It transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the beauty and joy of an 18th century wedding procession.
