Vintage Victorian Valentine Greeting Card with Pretty Woman

Like a Victorian Instagram influencer before the algorithm, this Valentine's Day mascot captures a rosy-cheeked young woman emerging from a floral arrangement like she's being born from a daisy, clutching yellow roses to her cheek with both hands in the universal gesture of 'please love me, I am trying very hard.' Her hat—a magnificent purple-and-white wide-brimmed monstrosity crowned with feathers and its own yellow flower—is doing the Lord's work up top while her off-the-shoulder ruffled dress threatens to slide completely off at any moment. Below her, a dark decorative border parades pink dahlias, tiny blue forget-me-nots, and little red hearts with the cheerful persistence of someone who has written 'Valentine Greeting' in cursive and absolutely means it, consequences be damned.
