Original wood block hand carved etching. 2 center pages of Harper's Weekly February 18, 1865. While specific details about the content of the artwork (e.g., exact figures or scenes depicted) are not extensively documented in accessible sources, it reflects the Victorian-era aestheticornate, sentimental, and morally upliftingtypical of Harper's Weekly illustrations during this period. For further context, this issue also included war-related content, such as scenes from the House of Representatives and reports on military prisons, indicating that the "St. Valentine's Day" etching provided a lighter, culturally resonant counterpoint to the heavier news of the time. Condition Fair. Missing small sliver of paper along center fold mostly outside of center image However it remains historically interesting. Size is 16" x 22". Mounted on stiff board and protected with mylar.
