Excerpt from The Wedding Day in Literature and Art: A Collection of the Best Descriptions of Weddings From the Works of the World's Leading Novelists and Poets, Richly Illustrated With Reproductions of Famous Paintings of Incidents of the Nuptial Day Y general consent the wedding day is considered to be the happiest episode in life. An event so rich in human interest, a day so universally filled with feasting and merrymaking, ought to furnish a subject that would call forth the best efforts of the poet, the painter, and the novelist. Singularly enough, the wedding is a topic of which artists and writers seem to be rather wary. As the result of an exhaustive search through all available data, the assertion is ventured that of the many thousands of paint ings in existence in Europe and America not more than one hundred and eighty have as their theme incidents of the wedding day. Poets are even more reluctant to treat of the nuptial day than their brethren of the palette and brush, and novelists are scarcely less so. Fortunately, those who have ventured to depict the events of the wedding day are among the world's foremost authors and artists, so that the inherent interest of the subject, whether portrayed on canvas or the printed page, is usually developed by the hand of a master.
