Images Of Art

Drew this last night.

 

Princess Alix of Hesse (1872-1918) was Queen Victoria's granddaughter. She married Nicholas II, Tsar of Russia, on 26 November 1894 in the Imperial Chapel of the Winter Palace. Here the bridegroom and bride are holding lighted candles and the Metropolitan Archbishop of St Petersburg makes the sign of the cross before them with their engagement rings. The Tsar is in Hussar uniform and the bride wears a diamond crown and the Imperial gold-embroidered mantle lined with ermine. The orange blossom was brought from the Imperial conservatory in Warsaw. Tuxen attended the ceremony and recorded how he was intoxicated by the beauty of the scene, by the singing, the richness of the colours, the light, the golden fabrics and the loveliness of the bride.

 

It's not very good.


Damn I just remembered how my high school Latin teacher used to call me her Mona Lisa.
Good times.
