EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print titled "Valentine, 1883" captures the essence of romance and courtship in 19th century Britain. Created by the talented Catherine Greenaway, this piece showcases her mastery of chromolithography gold lithography technique on white card stock with gilding. The image features a delightful scene where a young boy and girl are engaged in a sweet exchange during Saint Valentine's Day. Dressed in Victorian attire, they stand near a window adorned with beautiful roses, symbolizing love and affection. The intricate details of their clothing and the decorative elements surrounding them add to the overall aesthetic appeal. Greenaway's lithotint perfectly captures the innocence and purity associated with young love. The soft colors used evoke a sense of nostalgia while highlighting nature's beauty through carefully depicted plants and flowers. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this artwork exemplifies Greenaway's contribution to art history as well as her ability to create visually captivating pieces that resonate even today. It is an exquisite representation of romance in its most innocent form – capturing hearts across generations.
