IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 215107 accession number: P.14414-R-116 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Tuesday 14 February 2017 updated: Friday 26 January 2018 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: A series of lithographed vignettes on a wide strip of white wove paper, which has probably been cut down from a larger sheet. From left to right: A head and shoulders protrait of a young lady within a flower garland frame; a woman carried by a man in a jungle landscape; head and shoulders of a female figure crowned with fruit and flowers with birds above; an urn full of flowers with a nest of eggs below; a pair of doves on a rooftop, a church spire in the distance. The print-maker is almost certainly Edward Gilks as P.14414-R-115 is grouped together with a number of designs for valentines by Gilks in album P.14414-R and is stylistically similar to them. 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 and 1843 or between 1844 and 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.
