EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Marriage of Raymondin and Melusine" takes us back to the enchanting world of knights and chivalry in the Middle Ages. Created by an English School artist in the 15th century, this print beautifully captures a momentous wedding ceremony. The scene is filled with romance and intrigue as we witness the union of Raymondin and Melusine. The couple stands at the center, surrounded by a gathering of noble guests adorned in lavish medieval attire. Their faces are illuminated with joy and anticipation, reflecting their love for each other. Every detail in this engraving speaks volumes about the era it represents. From the intricately designed armor worn by knights to the delicate lace on Melusine's gown, it showcases both opulence and elegance that were characteristic of medieval weddings. The image also hints at mythical elements through its portrayal of Melusine. As a legendary creature from folklore, she possesses serpentine lower body parts instead of legs—a symbol often associated with her mystical origins. This particular print is part of John Ashton's book "Romances of Chivalry" published in 1937. Its digital restoration has brought out its original splendor while preserving its historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported into a realm where honor, bravery, and courtly love reigned supreme—an everlasting testament to the enduring allure of medieval tales.
