Lightning Strike

Could it be that little Cupid is hoping for a lightning strike? Flying a heart-shaped kite with a nice long tail, Cupid must be hoping for love to find him. From his cute little cheeks, wings and curly hair to the tip of his toes Cupid has just come to be such a part of Valentine’s Day.

Maybe this vintage 1911 Oliver Herford (1863-1935) drawing will strike you with the power of love.
