EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Valentine Receivers, 1875" captures a poignant moment between a well-to-do woman and her daughter as they open and read Valentine's cards and gifts. The image showcases the elaborate handmade cards crafted from embossed lace paper, skillfully produced by working-class women and children who were often underpaid for their laborious efforts. Taken from "The Graphic" on February 13th, 1875, this black-and-white engraving transports us back to the enchanting world of the nineteenth century. The mother is elegantly dressed in typical Victorian fashion while her thoughtful expression reveals her deep contemplation over each heartfelt message received. Her daughter stands beside her, mirroring her wistful gaze as they both immerse themselves in the tradition of exchanging tokens of love. This snapshot offers a glimpse into an era where romance was expressed through handwritten letters and carefully selected presents. It reminds us of the importance placed on sentimental gestures during that time period when technology had not yet taken over communication. As we admire this vintage photograph, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also recognize the hidden stories behind it - those of hardworking individuals who contributed to creating these intricate valentines with their skilled hands. May it serve as a reminder that even in simpler times, expressions of love held great significance for people across all walks of life.
