Applewood, the place named in this picture's title, is what distinguishes it from other Valentine's Day views on the board. The record does not give the date or the photographer, so the most reliable context is the holiday itself. Valentine's Day customs in the United States, such as exchanging handmade or printed cards and giving flowers and candy, were widely established by the early twentieth century. Photographs of holiday observances from that period often show homes, schoolrooms, or shop windows decorated with red and pink paper hearts, and that kind of everyday detail is worth looking for here.
