This oil painting, titled With This Ring I Thee Wed, presents a classic 19th-century genre scene depicting a wedding ceremony in an intimate, domestic setting. The groom is seen placing a ring on the bride’s finger, surrounded by various figures, including a priest, a clerk, and onlookers. The background elements, such as a world map on the wall, a smoking clerk, and maids peeking from a doorway, contribute to the rich narrative of the scene. Two dogs, including a King Charles Spaniel, add an element of warmth and familiarity. The painting exhibits fine attention to detail, with warm, naturalistic colors and period-accurate attire.
