Description
-
In this image the two people on the front are the focus of the image because they are El Cid and Jimena at their wedding. Jimena is wearing a white dress and her head is veiled. On her waist there is a belt separating the top part of her dress from the bottom part. The top part of her dress has patterns on it. She is holding a lit candle in her hand. The man next to her is El Cid and he is wearing a dark tunic with a white cape. A sword is visible at his waist. He is also holding a lit candle in his hand. His hand is dark and thick. In front of them on the altar is the bishop with his hand raised. He has a robe on and a hat. Next to the bishop a priest is holding a staff with a symbol of a cross on top of it. Behind the bride and groom there are many people. One distinguishable guest is the one right behind them who is a man wearing a tunic and a cape. He is carrying a sword at his waist. He has a moustache. Next to the man with the moustache the king is standing there with another man. The king is wearing his crown and white robes covered with a black cloak. He has a long white beard and moustache. The other man standing next to the king is wearing white robes and a dark cloak as well. He has a white beard as well. The room they all appear to be in is a church with the rock pillars. Also, it appears to be day because the two lines in the air seem to be sunshine coming in from windows on high in the church.
