This original lithograph postcard from 1912 captures an evocative scene of a young woman seated at a table, dabbing her eyes with a handkerchief, while a ghostly image of a couple kissing is visible in the dark background. The artwork is richly embossed with gold detailing on the woman's dress, tablecloth, and headband, enhancing the vintage aesthetic. Measuring approximately 3.5 x 5.5 inches, this postcard exemplifies early 20th-century printing techniques with its hand-colored lithographic process and embossed embellishments.Postmarked in Jona, St. Gallen, Switzerland, on January 22, 1912, this card bears a green Helvetia 5-cent postage stamp and handwritten German script on the back, adding to its historical charm. The sentimental theme of love and longing makes it a unique collectible item for postcard enthusiasts and lovers of vintage European ephemera. Its detailed embossing and early Swiss postal use highlight its appeal as a decorative and meaningful keepsake.
