Classic Wedding Art: “The Alarm” by Jean Francois de Troy (1723)
Jean Francois de Troy was known as a Rococo artist and tapestry designer, although within his artistic style, he was best known for his heavy sensual style throughout his pieces, like the one seen above. This painting, The Alarm shows a classic 18th Century couple perhaps on their wedding day, or maybe even sneaking off for some alone time. The gorgeous colors and romantic overtones are complimentary and a beautiful reflection of Traditional Wedding and Anniversary art.
