Two cherubs, each holding a red heart, carry the card's sentiment, and the words "Forget Me Not" state its message plainly. The forget-me-not has long been a symbol of remembrance, tied to a legend about a blossom asking to be remembered, so it appeared often on sentimental cards exchanged between friends, relatives and sweethearts. Illustrated greeting cards of this kind, with printed verses or phrases and decorative figures, were widely sold in Europe and America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The card's emphasis on remembrance is the likely reason it is grouped with the gallery's patriotic prints.
