EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming image captures the whimsical and romantic spirit of Valentine's Day as it was celebrated over a century ago. The photograph, titled "Cupid Posts a Billet-Doux," is a delightful depiction of the mythological figure of Cupid, the god of love, as he delivers a heartfelt letter, or billet-doux, to an unsuspecting recipient. The scene is set in a quaint, rustic setting, with Cupid perched on a tree branch, arrow in hand, ready to deliver his message of love. The letter, delicately folded and tied with a ribbon, is poised to be dropped into the mailbox below. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia and romance, transporting us back to a simpler time when love letters were a cherished form of communication. The tradition of exchanging Valentine's Day cards can be traced back to the 15th century, with the first printed cards appearing in Europe in the late 1400s. By the late 1800s, the exchange of Valentine's Day cards had become a popular custom in the United States and the United Kingdom. The cards were often handmade, intricately decorated, and filled with heartfelt messages of love and affection. This photograph, taken in 1908, is a beautiful representation of the historical significance and enduring appeal of Valentine's Day cards and the tradition of sending love letters. The image invites us to imagine the joy and excitement of receiving a surprise letter from a loved one, and the profound impact it can have on our hearts and minds. Whether you are sending a Valentine's Day card to a loved one or keeping one as a cherished keepsake, this image is a reminder of the power of love and the enduring appeal of the written word.
