REMARKS

Without knowing this painting’s measurements, fuller provenance, or other pertirnemt data, little can be concluded. It is possible that it was one of the many copies of Watteau’s La Mariée de village, La Signature de contrat, L’Accordée de village, or other compositions centering on bridal festivities.
