A Boyar Wedding Feast[nb 1] was painted in 1883 by Russian artist Konstantin Makovsky (1839–1915).[nb 2] The painting shows a toast at a wedding feast following a boyar marriage, where the bride and the groom are expected to kiss each other. The bride looks sad and reluctant, while the elderly attendant standing behind her encourages the bride to kiss the groom. The work won a gold medal at the World's Fair held in Antwerp, Belgium in 1885,[2] and is considered to be one of Makovsky's most popular works.[6][8] It is currently located in Hillwood museum, Washington DC, US.[9]
