To the Loved One Valentine card
Publisher: Unknown
A hand-coloured lithograph on 4to-size thin, white wove paper. A man kneels before a woman, holding her right hand in his. A garden and stone urn in the background. A verse with an underlined title is printed below: '_To the Loved One_ / And can you think my love is chill, / Nor fix'd on you alone? / And can you rend, by doubting still, / A heart too much your own? ...'. The interior is blank. One of eight examples from the same series which are mounted together, consecutively in album P.14416-R. The lithographic style of all eight reproduces a loose and fluid pastel drawing. This card is listed along with P.14416-R-11 in a handwritten MS from second-hand bookseller, R.S. Frampton found on the back fly-leaf of album P.14416-R (See P.14416-R-L1), the two bracketed together and priced as '2 for 7/0'. The remaining six are listed as a separate group in the Frampton MS and priced at £1.1/0 for the six. See P.14416-R-4, P.14416-R-6, P.14416-R-7, P.14416-R-8, P.14416-R-9, P.14416-R-10.
