Based on the original art "A Labour of Love" by Thomas Francis Dicksee, 1860.

A student of Henry Perronet Briggs, Dicksee came from a family of artists and exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1841 through 1895. He specialized in historical and genre subjects and often portrayed actors in roles. Between 1873 and 1895 the artist produced a series of evocative full-length depictions of leading female characters from Shakespeare, shown within landscapes, including "Ophelia" (1875), "Juliet" (1875), "Cleopatra" (1876), and "Miranda" (1895). The present representation of a young woman who joyfully carries a young boy through a rocky Welsh landscape anticipates those dramatic works, and was shown by Dicksee at the British Institution in 1860, then engraved for the "Illustrated News of the World."

Words come from Brandi Carlile's song "The Joke", co-written by Brandi Carlile, Tim Hanseroth, and Phil Hanseroth in 2017.
