Love and Good Will, I Bear to Thee
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an enchanting and mysterious 19th-century Valentine's Day print, whose creator remains unknown. This exquisite piece, estimated to have been created around 1830, is a testament to the enduring power of love and the rich artistic heritage of both America and England. The collaged artwork, featuring cut paper elements on embossed cream wove paper, is a visual feast for the eyes. A delicate floral design, reminiscent of English gardens, adorns the top half of the print, while the bottom half is filled with an intricate arrangement of flowers and foliage, interspersed with the words "Love and Good Will, I Bear to Thee." The white, colorful flowers seem to pop out of the paper, creating a three-dimensional effect that adds to the print's allure. The use of collaged elements and the embossed paper adds an extra layer of texture and depth to the artwork, making it a true antique treasure. The print's age and the fact that it has survived for nearly two centuries attest to its historical significance and the importance of preserving our cultural heritage. This beautiful and romantic print, with its message of love and goodwill, is a reminder of the power of art to transport us to another time and place. It is a testament to the enduring nature of love and the beauty of the natural world, and a reminder of the rich artistic traditions that have shaped our history. Whether displayed in a private collection or in a prestigious art gallery such as the Art Institute of Chicago, this print continues to captivate and inspire viewers, reminding us of the power of love and the importance of preserving our artistic heritage.
