This picture depicts the parade of a would-be groom heading for his bride’s house where a formal wedding ceremony will take place. The groom, mounted on a white horse, is guided by a lamp and wooden goose bearers and, though not captured in the painting, the groom’s guardian. The lady wearing a head covering and mounted on horseback behind the groom seems to be their matchmaker. The clever use of a hill helped the artist capture the long parade in one space.
