Victorian Valentine's Day Greeting Card with Daffodils

There's a quiet, almost defiant confidence radiating from this card's bizarre decision to use daffodils — spring's most aggressively cheerful flower, which blooms *after* Valentine's Day — as the perfect symbol of February romance. Respect the chaos. The light blue heart floating behind a cluster of yellow and rust-orange narcissus blooms seems to know exactly what it's doing, which makes it more suspicious. A tiny red heart pierced by what appear to be golden arrows lurks in a green rectangle in the bottom-right corner like a corporate logo for heartbreak, copyright H. Wessler, who apparently owned the concept of 'My Heart's Own Valentine' in gold Art Nouveau lettering and was not shy about it.
