Come Rain Come Shine, My Heart is Thine!

Description

Against the delicate pastels of soft cherub features and romantic sentiment, this Victorian greeting card presents a surprisingly bold composition: two cherubic figures sheltering beneath a vibrant red umbrella during gentle rain. One cherub wears a white dress/garment, while the winged cherub carries what appears to be a quiver or small box on its back. The barefoot cherubs lean together intimately as rain falls around them and wildflowers bloom at the card's borders. The romantic sentiment 'Come Rain Come Shine, My Heart is Thine' celebrates unwavering devotion and companionship, perfectly embodied by the cherubs' tender pose.
