IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 215102 accession number: P.14414-R-111 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Tuesday 14 February 2017 updated: Friday 26 January 2018 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: A small, hand-coloured lithographed vignette of flowers on a single sheet of white wove paper. Although the lithograph is unsigned, it is grouped together with a number of designs for valentines by British lithographer, Edward Gilks in album P.14414-R and is stylistically similar to these works. This lithograph probably represents either preparatory work or an unfinished design. This design was produced as a hand-coloured lithograph as seen in P.14414-R-113, which probably represents the finished valentine as the border of the paper has been embossed. As Gilks emigrated to Australia in 1852, this design is most likely to have been produced either during Gilks's apprenticeship in London to Thomas Dean, between 1836-1843 or between 1844 -1850 when he was in partnership with his brother Thomas, a wood-engraver, based at 4 Fenchurch Building, Fenchurch, London. Other designs by Gilks are contained in album P.14346-R. 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.
