"Summer of Saint-Martin: The Passing Wedding" (1908), a fine art print by French artist Auguste-Louis Lepère (1849-1918), captures a scene of a wedding procession passing through a wooded path. Lepère, a master of etching and aquatint, utilized a delicate balance of light and shade to depict the figures and trees with intricate detail, highlighting the tranquil atmosphere of the scene. This print, held in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, exemplifies Lepère's ability to capture both the beauty and the intimacy of everyday life in a charming and poetic manner.
