EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage Valentines card design, dating back to circa 1937, showcases a woman playfully emerging from behind a removable mask, revealing her true identity to her beloved. The intricately detailed original artwork, available as a print from Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the essence of the 1930s with its charming and whimsical style. The design features a coy and cautious woman, her eyes peeking out from beneath the mask, as she reveals her shy, yet loving expression. The mask, adorned with an iris and a chick, adds an element of mystery and intrigue, heightening the anticipation of the reveal. The woman's freckled complexion, buck teeth, and red lips are endearingly unattractive in their imperfection, reflecting the authenticity and vulnerability of human emotion. Her brown hair is styled in soft waves, framing her heart-shaped face and adding to the romantic allure of the image. The use of bold lines and shapes, along with the vibrant colors, showcases the artistic skill and creativity of the designer. The heart motif, a classic symbol of love and affection, is subtly incorporated into the design, adding to the overall romantic theme. This Valentines card design is a beautiful reminder of the excitement and vulnerability that comes with the reveal of true love. It is a timeless piece that captures the essence of romance in the 1930s and remains relevant and endearing to this day.
