Celebrate American tradition with this little framed Scherenschnitte. This paper-cut heart bears the message "Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things". The work is created in German-American paper-cutting style "Scherenschnitte", popular in the Pennsylvania Dutch regions of this country in the early nineteenth century. Designs are influenced by popular historical themes: patriotism, biblical and religious motifs, and scenes from rural life.
