EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Cupids Official Telegraphs, Victorian Valentines Day card" takes us back to the romantic era of the 19th century. The image showcases a whimsical Valentine's Day card that was popular during that time. The card features Cupid himself, the mischievous god of love, holding a telegraph machine with an expression full of humor and mischief. This unique blend of romance and technology perfectly captures the essence of Victorian communication. Intriguingly designed as a spoof or mock telegram, this piece is not only visually appealing but also carries a touch of amusement. It reminds us how even in those times long gone by, people found ways to express their love with creativity and wit. Displayed against a plain background, this print allows us to focus solely on the intricate details of the card itself. The delicate lines and shading bring out every curve and contour while adding depth to Cupid's figure. As we gaze upon this charming artwork from our private collection, it serves as a reminder that love has always been celebrated throughout history in various forms. Whether through traditional means like handwritten letters or modern methods such as telegrams or text messages – love finds its way into our hearts regardless of time period or technological advancements.
