EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming colour litho print captures a humorous and romantic moment in early 20th-century courtship. The scene depicts a plump, cheerful woman playfully proposing to her hesitant suitor during Leap Year, when tradition dictates that women can take the lead in matters of love.
The woman's declaration of love is met with a mix of surprise and delight on the man's face, as he considers her bold offer. The satirical cartoon style adds an element of light-heartedness to the tender moment, making it both comedic and heartwarming.
The vibrant colours used in this postcard evoke a sense of joy and optimism, reflecting the hopeful nature of new beginnings in love. The exaggerated figures of the characters add to the whimsical tone of the scene, emphasizing their playful interaction.
Overall, this print captures not only a snapshot of courtship in days gone by but also speaks to universal themes of love, humor, and romance. It serves as a reminder that sometimes taking a leap into the unknown can lead to unexpected happiness and fulfillment.
