On Wings of Love

Description

A cherubic putto and an elaborate bicycle of white daisies and forget-me-nots share this exquisite Victorian die-cut greeting card, with the winged angel figure rendered in delicate peachy tones and golden curls gazing forward while resting one hand to its chin. The die-cut construction creates dimensional layering, and the text 'On Wings of Love' is emblazoned in ornate red lettering at the base. The romantic floral arrangement and angelic imagery exemplify the sentimental aesthetic that defined Victorian greeting card design.
