A Wedding Night

Einar Zangenberg, 1911, 12 min
A dutiful maid is not always a blessing! That’s what a newly wed couple finds out after they return home tired and want to be left alone. Their old maid Ane has been told by the bride’s mother to give her a cup of tea before she goes to bed. The bride and groom protest, grumble and cry, but Ane won’t stop until she has done as she has been ordered!
