About the Item

Norwegian Wedding Dress from Saetersdalen – Tonsberg Edition, 1860s This striking 19th-century chromolithograph shows a bride and groom in full ceremonial wedding dress from Saetersdalen (modern-day Setesdal), a valley region in southern Norway known for its rich cultural traditions and elaborate folk costumes. The man and woman are portrayed standing side by side indoors, in front of a wooden wall, adding a sense of intimacy and focus on the garments’ intricate details. The groom wears a blue shirt, red vest, and a blue double-breasted jacket with silver buttons, along with black wool breeches and pale blue stockings. His conical cap and belt with silver ornaments are distinctive features of male attire from the region. He holds a walking stick and a decorative handkerchief. The bride’s costume is richly embroidered with floral patterns and enhanced with multiple layers of clothing. Her red headdress with gold ornamentation, blue sleeves, and apron decorated with colorful needlework indicate the importance of the occasion. Silver jewelry, a large brooch, and multiple buttons further highlight the festive nature of her costume. This print is Plate 3 from the series Udvalgte Norske Nationaldragter, or Selected Norwegian National Costumes. It was published by Chr. Tonsberg in Christiania (now Oslo) and printed by Winckelmann and Sonner in Berlin. The design was created by Johan Fredrik Eckersberg, one of Norway’s most important 19th-century artists. The series is one of the earliest visual documentations of Norway’s regional folk attire and played a key role in the country’s national romantic identity movement. This particular plate, focused on wedding attire, is one of the most elaborate in the series and a highlight for collectors of costume history and Scandinavian decorative arts. Condition: Very good condition with rich coloring and minimal signs of age. Clean margins, sharp detail, and strong impression throughout. Framing tips: Frame with dark wood or gold for a regal look. Use an off-white or warm ivory mount to accentuate the reds and blues. Suitable for classic interiors or heritage-themed collections.
