A love telegram taped to the back of this drawing attests that this image documents a true story. This levitated bride is perhaps a self-referential chapter in the artist's life, a longing remembered in a scene of lyrical love. As in so many other works, Pedro Pablo observes the world from the reserved and minimal corner from where his "window" opens. The stories thus take place in a framed space, within a dense atmosphere, sometimes bright or, as in this case, gloomy, through which Oliva intimates with the viewer, sometimes forcing him to get closer, browse, participate.
