IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 214522 accession number: P.14357-R DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Tuesday 14 February 2017 updated: Friday 26 January 2018 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: Small 64mo-size white card with embossed border and scalloped edges. A 'book' of cream card affixed at the centre with a lithographed cover design tinted in blue and yellow: CUPID'S / GRAMMAR / OF / LOVE. Within medallion at centre: POTENTIAL MOOD / IMPERFECT TENSE / SINGULAR. Inside the 'book' on the right-hand 'page' is a tinted lithograph in sepia with hand-colouring of a woman whipping a gentleman wearing a top hat, checked trousers and smoking a cigarette. Printed on the white card backing at upper and lower centre: "He will not love, do / all I can, / I ne'er shall make of / him a man." From a series and one of six in the collection, four of which are mounted onto the same leaf in album P.14412-R. P.14357-R and one other, P.14373-R were also originally mounted onto the same leaf of album P.14412-R. All six cards were almost certainly originally contained inside a cream envelope found loose on the same leaf of the album and inscribed in hand-written black ink: "Grammar of Love, / Set of 6 / (_Possibly unique_) / c. 183-". The envelope possibly originated with a dealer who was sending Glaisher valentines on approval. This valentine was included in the exhibition of valentine cards, _For ever thine: the nineteenth century valentine_, held in the Charrington Print Room at the Fitzwilliam Museum in 1995, no. 81. This valentine was one of 12 included in the exhibition about J.W.L. Glaisher as collector, _James Whitbread Lee Glaisher ScD, FRS (1848-1928) Mathematician and Collector_, held in the Octagon Gallery at the Fitzwilliam Museum in 1999, Case 9. The selection repeated that of the 1995 exhibition. title: Valentine card LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Paintings, Drawings and Prints creditline: Bequeathed by Dr J.
