Bruid tilt deken van het bed op, terwijl haar bruidegom vanachter een kamerscherm tevoorschijn komt c. 1870 - 1890

"Bruid tilt deken van het bed op, terwijl haar bruidegom vanachter een kamerscherm tevoorschijn komt" (c. 1870-1890) by Eugène Hanau is a stereoscopic photograph depicting a bride lifting the bedsheets and a groom emerging from behind a screen. The image, likely part of a larger series, showcases a moment of intimacy and anticipation, capturing the excitement of the wedding night. This type of imagery, often associated with Victorian sensibilities, explored themes of romance and domesticity within the context of the Parisian social scene. The photograph, part of the "La Vie Parisienne" collection, exemplifies the evolving use of photography in capturing everyday life and social customs during the 19th century.
