Vintage Print Of A Reluctant Marriage

This is an old Print of a Dana Gibson Drawing. Marriage, the appetizer to a feast called Divorce. This meal is eaten upon a common ground of misunderstanding. The mother demands her daughter take the hand of a wealthy ol’ geezer, the exchange clearly being that of nobility and riches for purity and youth. The husband like a bad oyster, bowing in reverence as he solemnly swears before a blind clergyman to do whatever he can to maintain the health and beauty of his newly acquired trophy, knowing darn well that like any bad oyster he is bound to get everyone within close contact ill. The clergyman sputters and putters a singy-song style caption of words, lips chapped and mind numb from the senselessness of this redundant affair. There is no passion. There is no light. Only a stern mother pulling the strings that tighten the breathtaking grip that is her own security and well being. There are no pawns in the church only a single queen, and she stands before a sightless man, a withering groom and a mute daughter. This is her game. All we can do is watch. I’m going to switch to DayQuil. This is an old print. It is printed on old paper. The paper has some wear. It is 11x17 If you’d like it shipped I can get an estimate 🤘🏼 Thanks for looking at my posting, you can view my other listings by clicking on my profile picture. 😎 If you like an item feel free to make an offer 🙂
