Framed Reproduction Print on Board
15\" x 20\"

This vintage reproduction captures Albert Anker\'s (1831-1910) celebrated genre scene \"The Civil Marriage,\" originally painted in 1887. Anker, widely considered the national painter of Switzerland, was renowned for his empathetic and detailed depictions of 19th-century village life. The composition features a meticulously rendered interior where a young couple and their families gather before a registrar, showcasing Anker\'s mastery of social observation and domestic storytelling typical of European Realism.

• Frame measurements: 20\" Length x 15\" Width x 2\" Height
Condition: The item is in fair condition. The wooden frame exhibits noticeable surface scratches, scuffs, and minor finish loss throughout.
