EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures a comical scene of a groom arriving late for his own wedding. Created by an English School artist in the early 20th century, this postcard showcases the humorous side of marriage and religious ceremonies. The image depicts a frantic bridegroom running towards a stone church, with consternation evident on his face. The imposing monument stands tall in the background, adding to the architectural beauty of the scene. A priest and other religious figures can be seen waiting at the entrance, their expressions ranging from anger to amusement. The artwork cleverly plays with emotions and symbolism, highlighting themes such as anger, seven deadly sins, and feelings associated with weddings. The veil-clad bride patiently waits inside while flowers adorn her surroundings. This delightful print offers both entertainment and historical value as it provides insight into early 20th-century humor and artistic styles. It serves as a reminder that even sacred events like weddings are not immune to mishaps or unexpected twists. With its amusing portrayal of marital chaos and religious roles intertwined, this postcard is sure to bring smiles to those who appreciate art infused with wit. A true gem from Bridgeman Images' private collection that adds joyous flair to any space it graces.
