EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the late 19th century transports us back to a momentous Celtic wedding in the year 1171. The scene depicts the union of Eva and Richard Strongbow Fitzgilbert, Earl of Pembroke, at Waterford, Ireland. Steeped in rich history and tradition, this image captures the essence of a medieval ceremony. The bride and groom stand at the center of attention, their regal attire reflecting their noble status. Eva is resplendent in her flowing robe while Richard exudes strength and power in his armor. Kneeling before them is a bishop who presides over the sacred ritual, symbolizing both religious sanctity and royal approval. Surrounded by a congregation that includes distinguished noblemen and women, this wedding unites two influential families - one English and one Irish - bridging cultural divides during an era marked by political tensions between Normans and Celts. Intricate details bring life to every element within this print: from the ornate interior of the church to each individual's distinctive features - be it a man's beard or a woman's elegant headdress. This portrayal serves as an invaluable historical document that sheds light on ancient customs while offering insight into societal norms prevalent during that time. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork by The Granger Collection, we are reminded of love's ability to transcend boundaries – whether they be cultural or temporal – leaving an indelible mark on history for generations to come.
