Object Description
A hand-colored wedding portrait. A bride and groom are standing in front of what appears to be a fireplace. There are a pair of tall candelabra, one on either side of the fireplace. Standing in front of the left candelabra is the bride. She has short, dark, curly hair. She is wearing a fairly simple, white, long-sleeved wedding dress with a long white veil and a very long train. In her hands is a large bouquet of white flowers. To her left (camera right) is the groom. He has short, dark hair and a thin, dark mustache. He is wearing a tuxedo with a a white bow tie. There is a white handkerchief in his pocket and a white boutonniere in his lapel. To the left of the couple (camera right), there is a bouquet of pink and white flowers on the floor. There are two more bouquets on the other side, one on the floor and one sitting on a pedestal. Part of an ornate door is visible a the far left of the photo. Most of the photo has been hand-colored. The only parts that remain in black and white are the bride and groom's clothing, the groom's boutonniere, and the bride's bouquet.
