29-Culture Break: An 18th Century Italian Wedding

~ EmilyAnn Frances

While researching wedding customs in 19th and 20th century Italy, Uncle Sammy and I discovered the artwork of Giulio Rosati.  He was an Italian painter who depicted scenes from 18th and 19th century life, as well as exotic imaginings of life in the East.  We hope you will enjoy this painting of an 18th century Italian wedding.  The color and detail in this painting make it a delight to view.

I was born and raised in Dyker Heights, Brooklyn, New York. I attended Hunter College where I graduated magna cum laude with a B.A. in English Language Arts. After graduation I worked in various industries such as publishing, fashion, financial services, investment banking, and for government. My passion for fashion was nurtured at the French Fashion Academy where I learned dressmaking, patternmaking, sketching and draping. My enjoyment of dressmaking and family history find a wonderful home here at WordPress. I hope you enjoy both of my blogs.
