Tinted by hand in soft pastels, this card pairs a pair of lovers with a border of green clovers, a motif that carried luck and good wishes in Victorian sentiment. Postcards like this one were popular in the late 1800s and early 1900s, when lithographed and printed cards were sent between friends and sweethearts for holidays such as Valentine's Day. The color was added by hand, often by women working in printing shops, so no two cards looked exactly alike. Its sentimental imagery reflects the era's taste for romantic greetings sent through the mail.
