"The Wedding March" is a painting by the British artist Edmund Blair Leighton (1852–1922), known for his historical genre scenes, often with a romantic or chivalric theme. Created in 1919, the painting depicts a quintessential moment from a medieval wedding procession, a subject that aligns with Leighton's penchant for Victorian ideals of chivalry and courtly love. The artwork captures the bride, adorned in a lavish gown, being escorted under the shelter of a ceremonial cloth or canopy, which was a common practice in traditional nuptial ceremonies to symbolize protection and sanctity. The bride is surrounded by a retinue of elegantly dressed attendants and onlookers, all set against the backdrop of a richly detailed architectural setting, evoking the grandeur of a bygone era.

Leighton's meticulous attention to historical accuracy in costume and setting, along with his skillful rendering of the figures, imbues the painting with a sense of authenticity and transports the viewer to the romanticized medieval past that was popular during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. "The Wedding March" is emblematic of Leighton's work, which often celebrated the values and aesthetics of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, despite him not being a member of the group. His paintings are characterized by their narrative quality, technical finesse, and the idealization of their subjects.

As with many of Leighton's works, "The Wedding March" would have resonated with contemporary audiences who were nostalgic for an imagined age of honor and ceremony. The painting is part of Leighton's broader oeuvre, which contributed to the late 19th and early 20th-century revival of interest in medieval themes and stories. While not as widely known as some of his contemporaries, Leighton's paintings, including "The Wedding March," continue to be appreciated for their romantic portrayal of historical scenes and their exquisite detail.
