This painting is called "Spring Wedding Bride and Groom." It is an oil painting and was painted by H Malott. He lives in Fort Wayne, Indiana.This painting is a very simple portrayal of a wedding. As stated in the painting's title, the wedding takes place in the spring and this coincides with the light earth colors. The focal point is the bride and groom which emphasizes the fact that they were married. The purple hue in the sky and the flowers in the background of this still life also contribute to the spring atmosphere and the overall happy feeling of the painting.
Clearly, the two in this painting were just married. They look young so maybe they were childhood friends who decide to get married earlier in their adulthood. Even though the viewer cannot see any facial expressions, it is apparent that the couple is happy because they are linked arm in arm.

I really like your concept of devotion and I think a painting of a bride and groom is a good depiction of it. It's very interesting that they do not have any facial expressions but I think that adds to the beauty and mystery of the painting.
