The male figure depicted appears to be a brick pointer. He holds a giant trowel in front of his oversized head like a mirror. A graphite sketch of Cupid pulling back his arrow to fire at him is visible at upper right. Graphite depictions of roofs, chimneys and clouds are visible behind him. One of a group bought by Glaisher at a sale, the catalogue clipping affixed to the same album leaf: "749 - Original wash Valentine Drawings - A collection of 8 executed for Messrs. Marks & Co. by BRITTAIN ...". This group of valentines was bought in 1924 from the bookseller, R.S. Frampton who was based at "Walton House", 37 Fonthill Road, Finsbury Park, London, N4. The bookseller's catalogue (No. 35), with several lot descriptions cut from it, was found in boxes containing Glaisher's valentines. For Frampton catalogue, see Valentinesarchive14. See also P.14345-R-4 - P.14345-R-10, for the other valentines in this group. The drawings were probably produced for S. Marks & Sons, who specialised in comic valentines during the 1850s. The artist, 'Brittain' is unknown. reference exhibition-3260 adlib-exhibition-3260 821e2a99-5861-36f6-b61e-49f80f8d737a The Object of My Affection: Stories of Love from the Fitzwilliam Collection P.14345-R-3 1 accession number P.14345-R-3 214288 priref 214288 uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/214288 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/214288 reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Bequeathed by Dr J.
