Artwork
With archival pigmented ink to last a lifetime, this 11"x14" artistic creation, on handmade paper, pictorially represents True Marriage.
(provided with Accompanying Documents)
Each custom-made Proclamation includes the date and location of the wedding, and the names of the husband, wife, maid of honor, best man, and the presiding minister, with corresponding signature lines. (some witnesses omitted in renewal version) The couple recognizes, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female.' For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh" (Mat 19:5). This conviction is symbolized in the foundation of the Proclamation by the licensed reproduction of the painting of Adam and Eve in paradise, from the Museo de Navarra. The opposite corner includes the painting of Jesus with the apostles. The written vows are encompassed by the "tree of life" rising towards heaven, upholding gold wedding bands that are the universal sign of love and fidelity. Two angels crest the scene as witnesses from heaven, ready and interceding for each couple. |
