EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the German edition of the Lenormand French cartomancy deck, featuring The Rider, The Clover, and The Ship cards. Published by Dondorf in Frankfurt during the 19th century, this deck holds historical significance as a popular divination tool during the Napoleonic era. Measuring 8.6x5.3 cm, these beautifully illustrated cards are part of a private collection. Each card carries its own symbolic meaning: The Rider represents news and messages delivered by a messenger; The Clover signifies luck, happiness, and temporary change; while The Ship symbolizes journeys, development, money matters, and good fortune. The House card embodies stability, security, strength, long-term success in both business and love. These cards were named after Marie Anne Lenormand (1772-1843), an influential French fortune-teller renowned for her clairvoyant abilities. This image captures not only the rich symbolism within each card but also provides insight into the artistry of 19th-century lithography techniques used to create them. It is fascinating to see how these ancient symbols continue to be utilized today in modern-day tarot readings and other forms of divination. Whether you believe in their mystical powers or simply appreciate their aesthetic appeal as works of art from another era - this print serves as a reminder that superstition has always played a role in human history.
