EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 19th century valentine, titled "Remember the Giver," is an engraved and hand-colored ivory card from the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago. Dating back to approximately 1830, this American antique is a testament to the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the time. The intricate floral design, which covers the entire surface of the card, is a stunning example of the detail and craftsmanship that went into creating these romantic keepsakes. The concept of the valentine as a symbol of love and affection was well-established by the 19th century, and this card is a beautiful depiction of that tradition. The engraving with hand-coloring technique used to create this work of art adds an extra layer of depth and richness to the already stunning floral design. The card's message, "Remember the Giver," serves as a reminder of the importance of expressing gratitude and appreciation for the love and kindness we receive from others. This sentiment, combined with the timeless beauty of the design, makes this valentine a cherished artifact that continues to capture the hearts of collectors and admirers alike. The exact creator of this valentine is unknown, adding to its allure and mystery. It is believed that similar cards were produced in both America and England during the 19th century, reflecting the shared cultural influences and artistic traditions of the time. Today, this historic artifact remains an important part of the Art Institute of Chicago's extensive prints and drawings collection, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world.
