Description: This antique wedding portrait, taken at J. Berg’s Photographic Studio in Grand Forks, North Dakota, captures a timeless moment from the late 19th century or early 20th century. The bride and groom are elegantly seated in Victorian wicker chairs, dressed in traditional wedding attire, reflecting the formal and romantic style of the era. The image measures about 6 1/2" x 4 1/4" in size and is a single piece. The photograph features the well-known J. Berg Studio branding on both the front and back of the card. The back of the card showcases an intricate engraving of Berg’s studio, located at the corner of Bruce Ave. and 4th Street, Grand Forks, N.D., adding historical significance to this vintage piece. J. Berg was a well-regarded photographer in the region, also advertising picture frames, albums, mouldings, and Norwegian views. Condition: This original cabinet card is in good condition considering its age, though it does show signs of wear typical of photographs from the late 1800s. The photograph itself is clear and well-preserved, but the card shows wear around the edges and corners. The bottom right corner is bent, and the other corners are worn or dinged (please refer to the pictures for detailed views). There is light soiling, and the reverse side has some creasing, but the overall charm and authenticity of this rare photograph remain intact. The WATERMARKS are NOT on the originals. This piece is an excellent example of vintage studio photography from North Dakota, with the added appeal of its Victorian wicker chair props and the bride’s detailed wedding dress and veil. Perfect for collectors of antique wedding photographs, Americana, or those interested in the history of Grand Forks and early photography studios. This stunning antique wedding photograph would make a fantastic addition to any collection of vintage portraits or historical memorabilia.
