100 Rs
Grandma Moses, byname of Anna Mary Robertson Moses (1860-1961) was an American folk painter who was internationally popular for her naive documentation of rural life in the United States.
She began painting in earnest at the age of 78 and is a prominent example of a newly successful art career at an advanced age. Her works have been shown and sold worldwide, including in museums. Her artworks are warmly reassuring and the simple realism, nostalgic atmosphere and luminous color with which Grandma Moses portrayed farm life and rural countryside won her a wide following.
In the 1950s more Americans knew the name of Grandma Moses than that of any other artist!

About A Country Wedding Grandma Moses (Anna Mary Robertson) Folk Art Painting
Though depicting an outdoor scene, this painting is unlike Moses’ typically expansive landscapes that recede into infinity. The foreground is tilted upright as in many of her landscapes, but the large brick building and trees act as a scrim, creating a stage-like setting. The theatrical foreground is filled with nearly thirty figures that are engaged in a number of wedding-related vignettes, some romantic and others whimsical. Moses depicts multiple couples and multiple moments in time, eschewing linear narrative to convey the overall feel of a joyous event rather than a specific moment in a specific wedding.About the Posters
