Marriage Consultation n.d.

"Marriage Consultation" is a satirical print by English artist Edward Fisher, depicting a scene of a potential marriage negotiation in 18th-century England. The print, created using the etching and engraving techniques, shows four figures seated in a room, with a caption that describes the conversation surrounding a potential union. The scene includes a bride and groom candidate, their respective families, and the negotiation of a dowry. This humorous take on social norms and the importance of financial considerations in marriage was likely popular with contemporary audiences, offering a glimpse into the societal expectations of the time.
