This week's bride and groom are unidentified, but what a beautiful couple they are and the presentation is gorgeous. The photograph is housed in a 7" x 10" cardboard folder and the frame around it has a lovely Art Deco feel with the brownish-green marbling and gold inlay.
The groom is dressed simply and elegantly in his tuxedo; the bride is breathtaking in her satin dress with the most unusual headdress and veil with large rosettes. She is wearing a long strand of pearls and is holding what appears to be a white bible or prayer book.
Almost impossible to see, but just below the first gold inlay frame is the photographer's name, McIntire Studio, Ft. Madison, Ia.
That headdress has a Russian look to it.
ReplyDeleteThank you, that's it! I couldn't quite put my finger on what that headdress quite reminded me of. At first I kept thinking of the Statue of Liberty! LOL! But, it does have a Russian look.
DeleteBeautiful headdress..very unusual! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo. Such a shame that it doesn't take pride of place in someone's home.
