"Wedded: A Journey Through Love, Betrayal, and Tradition" Step into the world of "Wedded, " a captivating collection of artworks that explores the complexities of marriage throughout history. From Sir Hugo as a three-year-old held by Groom in a Stable, c. 1875-92 to Naughty Wives Exchanged, these pieces offer glimpses into the diverse facets of matrimony. In The Bride Josine, depicted on oil on cardboard, we witness the anticipation and excitement that surrounds a bride's special day. Meanwhile, El Cids Daughters transports us back to an ancient tale from Romance XLIV of the Tesoro de Romanceros through its vibrant oil on canvas composition. The exhibition takes an unexpected turn with There I Was Waiting At The Church (colour photo), capturing candid moments filled with hope and nervousness. Le Bas Bleu adds a touch of humor with its colorful lithograph showcasing witty banter between married intellectuals. However, not all marriages are blissful; A wife taking a stick to her drunken husband (1831 engraving) reminds us that relationships can be marred by strife and conflict. Similarly haunting is the chromolitho depiction of Anne Boleyn's execution at Tower of London - reminding viewers that even royal unions can end tragically. Venturing beyond Western traditions, Malay Bride and Bridesmaids (b/w photo) offers insight into cultural ceremonies while Venetian man killing his wife in 16th century engraving exposes darker aspects hidden behind marital facades. Q E D; a woman beaten by her husband (litho) serves as an unsettling reminder about domestic abuse prevalent across time periods. Contrasting this narrative is The subjugated husband (color litho), shedding light on unconventional power dynamics within relationships. As you explore "Wedded, " prepare for an emotional rollercoaster where love intertwines with betrayal and tradition clashes with personal desires.
