Happy Valentine's day! Here's a piece of watercolor art from our collection called "Knot of Love," painted in 1816.
The center of the piece features a red heart, which is surrounded with green and beige circles that forms a diamond, and features lines of a poem that works its way through the piece.

I'm not big on fast food, usually it's a matter of quick convenience once or twice a month. I understand the need for some price increases, but McDonald's is just greedy.
