Burning Heart Greeting Card by Open Sea

This print, and collage, is centered around a dutch bridal heart from the 17th century.

This ornate heart would have been given as a gift to a bride on the day of her wedding. For this print it is reimagined as an incense holder that burns an intoxicating, rose-scented love potion. ⁠ ⁠
