Victorian Cherub Cupid Valentine Card with Target Heart

The blue-and-white striped archery target positioned dead center is the first clue that this card is far stranger than it initially appears. Two chubby, rosy-cheeked cherubs with tiny white wings are engaged in what can only be described as an extremely on-brand workplace training exercise: one kneels with a bow drawn while the other supervises, both laser-focused on that glossy red heart. The ground around the target is an absolute crime scene of scattered red hearts and at least one arrow that has already pierced a heart like it's auditioning for a medieval murder mystery. A jaunty gold bow tied around the kneeling cupid's waist suggests this is a *festive* slaughter, which somehow makes it worse. The caption 'To my Valentine' sits at the bottom, cheerfully daring you to read this as romantic rather than as a training montage from the world's most unhinged archery camp.
