With a Golden Wedding Ring
Valentine's Day card with the image of a woman sitting on a cushioned wooden bench, gazing at her wedding ring. She is wearing a long blue dress. A gray ceramic pot with a plant in it sits on the windowsill behind her. The verse in the upper left corner reads "This old world is scarce worth wearing, Till LOVE wave his purple wing, And we gauge the bliss of being, Thro' a golden Wedding-ring, There's no jewel so worth wearing, That a lover's hand may bring, There's no treasure worth comparing, With a golden Wedding-ring. Gerald Massey." Chromolithograph. |
