IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 215108 accession number: P.14414-R-117 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Tuesday 14 February 2017 updated: Friday 26 January 2018 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: A lithograph with hand colouring on a narrow strip of white wove paper. A small vignette of a goblet of grapes with a pineapple and peaches below and to the left within an arched lithographed frame. A verse is lithographed below: 'Lady sweet Lady / Listen to my prayer / Full of hope I send it / on the morning air ...'. This is the same design as seen in P.14414-R-115, mounted nearby, although this version includes hand colouring and the addition of the lithographed archway and also a different verse. 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. 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.
