The couple is posed formally, the bride in a flowing white dress and veil, the groom in a dark suit. This small format photograph, measuring just 105 mm by 63 mm, is a testament to the popularity of portraiture in the late 19th century, capturing a precious moment in the lives of a newly married couple.
