Romantic Vintage Valentine Card: Spanish Guitarist Serenade

'Wilt be my Valentine?' reads the script below—a question that carries significantly more desperation when delivered by a tiny poncho'd mandolin child staring directly at the ceiling. This rotund little troubadour in a wide-brimmed hat, striped red-and-gold poncho, and knee breeches is absolutely belting a serenade on his mandolin with the energy of someone who has been told 'no' many times before. Two large hearts—one gold, one red—loom behind him like a Valentine's Day PowerPoint slide gone rogue, while smaller hearts dangle off pink ribbons along the border like clearance decorations at a Party City. The child's upward gaze and wide-open mouth suggest either profound romantic yearning or a child who has just spotted a bird mid-song and refuses to stop performing.
