EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Les fiancailles du major (Major's Betrothal)" showcases a scene from the 19th century. The painting, created by Pavel Andreyevich Fedotov in 1848, depicts a salon filled with exquisite decorations, furniture, and tableware that epitomize the elegance of the era. In this vibrant setting, an elderly woman announces the arrival of the major while the bride-to-be drops her delicate white lace handkerchief in joyous anticipation. Her mother tries to reason with her but is unable to divert her attention as she is held back by her flowing gown. Meanwhile, the father prepares to welcome the major who confidently adjusts his mustache at the doorway. The atmosphere is further enlivened as characters bring food and wine to a beautifully set table. This painting captures not only a celebration but also various emotions such as fear, shyness, love, anxiety, and argument among family members. Fedotov's work reflects Russian art of the 19th century and can be found in Moscow's State Tretyakov Gallery. The image itself was captured by Fine Art Images and distributed through Bridgeman Images. Through this mesmerizing composition filled with rich colors and intricate details, viewers are transported back in time to witness both familial dynamics and societal customs surrounding engagements during this period.
