Victorian Cherub Hearts Greeting Card | Winged Angels Love
Description
Warmth and nostalgia radiate from this charming Victorian-era Valentine greeting card, which showcases two cherubic putti with delicate gossamer wings in an idyllic pastoral landscape. One standing cherub holds strings attached to five oversized floating red hearts while a second cherub kneels on the ground reaching for a heart. Set against a backdrop of trees and green meadow beneath a soft turquoise sky. This chromolithographed treasure exemplifies the sentimental romance of late-19th-century Valentine's Day traditions, when cupid imagery and angelic figures symbolized divine love and romantic devotion.
