Bilder J.B. Sonderland (19th Century) – Brautzug nach der Kirche (Bridal Procession to the Church) – Lithograph (19th Century)

Beskrivning

This finely detailed lithograph by J.B. Sonderland depicts a traditional bridal procession heading to the church. The scene captures a group of villagers dressed in regional costumes, including a bride and groom in the center, surrounded by family and townsfolk. The groom tips his hat as he steps forward, while musicians provide accompaniment. The setting appears rural with architectural details suggestive of a village church. The print was produced by Druck von Arnz in Düsseldorf, a known lithographic publisher in the 19th century. The work combines social documentary with romanticized nostalgia for regional customs.

J.B. Sonderland was a 19th-century German lithographer and illustrator active in Düsseldorf. His work often portrayed folk traditions and everyday life with an eye for cultural detail and expressive characterization, contributing to the period’s interest in Heimat (homeland) themes.
