EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the romantic era of the 19th century. Created by George Kershaw, this hand-coloured lithograph on embossed ivory wove paper beautifully captures the essence of love and nature. In this close-up shot, we see a young British child standing on a riverbank, her hopeful gaze fixed upon an estuary where she tries to catch the heart of her beloved with a fishing rod. The vibrant colours and intricate detailing bring out the charm of this old-fashioned greeting card design. The handwritten English text inset adds an intimate touch to the artwork, as if it were personally crafted for someone special. The lithotint technique used in printing enhances both the delicate features of the female protagonist and the surrounding plants along the riverbank. This piece not only showcases Kershaw's artistic talent but also reflects his deep appreciation for geography and natural beauty. It transports us to a simpler time when expressing one's affection required effort and creativity. Displayed at Art Institute Chicago, "I Have Angled for a Heart My Love (valentine)" serves as a reminder of our enduring desire for romance and connection across generations. It stands as an exquisite example of heritage art that continues to captivate viewers with its timeless message: love knows no bounds when it comes to matters of the heart.
