Two winged fairy children meet mouth to mouth above a bed of blossoms on this card, a sentimental motif that was popular on greeting cards in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The "Forget Me Not" title points to its use as a keepsake for friends, sweethearts and relatives, who sent such cards to mark birthdays, holidays or simple affection. Cards like this were often printed in chromolithography, with soft color and embossed or decorated edges, and they sit at the crossroads of Victorian sentiment and the growing mass market for ephemeral printed goods. Its placement under Angels and Fairies reflects how the era blurred religious imagery with playful fairy lore.
