EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of art from the 19th century, titled "Valentine - Mechanical fan, ca. 1875". Created by an anonymous artist, this antique artifact beautifully captures the essence of Victorian romance and courtship. The fan is intricately designed with delicate floral patterns and vibrant colors, showcasing the exquisite technique of chromolithography. Made from heavy card stock and adorned with gilding and cotton thread, it exemplifies the craftsmanship of that era. Symbolizing love and affection, this handheld masterpiece was likely used as a greeting card for Valentine's Day celebrations in Britain during the late 1800s. Its die-cutting technique adds depth to its depiction of flowers, creating a three-dimensional effect that enhances its visual appeal. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this historic lithograph represents not only a significant part of our cultural heritage but also serves as a window into the romantic ideals cherished during those times. With its intricate details and rich symbolism, this artwork transports us back to an era where handwritten sentiments on beautiful cards were exchanged between loved ones on Valentine's Day. It reminds us of the timeless nature of love and how expressions of affection have evolved over time. As we admire this remarkable piece from history, let it serve as a reminder to cherish our own relationships and celebrate love in all its forms each year on Saint Valentine's Day.
