If you examine the supply of vintage angels clip art on the Web, you’ll see that not only do they vary by holiday, but they also vary in the portrayal of their temperament.  Vintage Christmas or Easter angels from the early part of the 20th century are often quite serious, whereas Valentine’s Day angels seem to be more lighthearted. This is probably because the Christmas and Easter angels were perceived to have serious business to conduct on behalf of God. Valentine’s Day angels, on the other hand, are by nature more mischievous and are expected to be a little more lighthearted in their presentation.
