About the piece

Painted in 1905, Joža Úprka’s 'The Peasant Wedding' is a masterful celebration of Slovak heritage and rural life. The composition is alive with energetic brushwork and a saturated palette of reds and whites, depicting a festive party in elaborate ceremonial dress as they travel through a dapple-lit landscape.
