"Valentine" is a charming illustration by Kate Greenaway, a renowned English artist known for her charming depictions of children and nature. Created in 1874, this work features two children in a meadow filled with delicate wildflowers, including bluebells, cowlips, and other blooms. Greenaway's signature style is evident in the meticulously detailed floral patterns and the whimsical depiction of the children, adding a touch of Victorian innocence and elegance to the artwork. The artwork is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, NY.
