The creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. This antique Valentine's Day card originated from America and showcases a rich blend of English and American artistic influences. The collage features a scene of amorini, or cherubs, engaged in a romantic moment. Two cherubs, adorned with golden wings, are depicted in a tender embrace, their bodies entwined as they exchange loving glances. Above them, a flock of lovebirds takes flight, their vibrant colors contrasting against the muted tones of the background.
