Text on Card
Valentine Greetings
Description
Deep crimson tones signal romance in this Victorian Valentine's greeting card, which features a delicate cherub musician perched upon a black animal (appearing to be a pig or boar) in front of a massive heart. The winged cherub, rendered with soft blonde curls and classical drapery, plays a white/silver lyre while surrounded by lush pink roses that cascade around the base of the composition. The rich teal background creates striking contrast with the warm coral and red tones of the central heart, while decorative lettering announces 'Valentine Greetings' at the top.
Subjects
