Annibale Conveyed Feast Maria Suburb Umberto Unconventional 1929 Fiera
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a truly unconventional and historical moment in the marriage customs of Italy. In 1929, in the suburb of Fiera, near Treviso, Umberto Annibale and Maria Robazza decided to tie the knot in a way that would be remembered for generations to come.
Instead of opting for a traditional wedding procession, this daring couple chose to be conveyed to the church in wheelbarrows. The sight of them being wheeled through the streets must have been quite a spectacle for all who witnessed it. And after saying their vows, they were then taken to a hotel for their wedding feast - continuing their unique celebration.
The image is not only a testament to the love shared between Umberto and Maria but also serves as a reminder of how traditions can be reimagined and personalized by each couple. It showcases that weddings don't always have to follow conventional norms - sometimes breaking away from tradition can create unforgettable memories.
Thanks to Mary Evans Picture Library, we are able to glimpse into this fascinating moment in history and appreciate the beauty of love expressed in its most unconventional form. This print is not just an image; it's a story waiting to be told over and over again.
