Edwardian Valentine Card: Two Girls Kissing with Watching Dog

A scroll complete with an official wax seal and a blonde child in an orange outfit full-on locking lips with a dark-haired girl sporting a large red bow imply a legally binding romance, while a very concerned dog watches from the sidelines like a furry chaperone who absolutely did not sign up for this. The grammatically catastrophic message 'Why don't someone ask someone to be someone's Valentine' achieves a kind of philosophical void, essentially asking no one in particular to do nothing specific for an unnamed recipient. The dog's expression — equal parts horrified and resigned — is honestly the most relatable element of this entire composition, and the little smoke puff between the kissing children suggests the collision was either magical or just two kids bonking faces at high velocity.
