Scope and Content

Victor has drawn himself and Inge within a large red heart outlined by lace or frills. He has drawn himself as a nude Cupid figure, without wings, firing an arrow at Inge. Inge is sat on a yellow Camel-back chair wearing a flamboyant blue dress and white flowers in her hair. Victor has a blue face and a pink body. The drawing is captioned 'I swear to thee, by Cupid's strongest bow...' Victor writes to Inge thanking her for her Valentine, and 'here's mine!' On the reverse, Victor writes 'For Inge' accompanied by a line drawing of a heart pierced by an arrow.
