The Angel, a Fascimile of a Tarot Card from the Visconti Deck - A Glimpse into the Mystical World of Divination and Symbolism
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases "The Angel" an exquisite fascimile of a tarot card from the renowned Visconti deck. Created between 1441-47 by Bonifacio Bembo (c. 1420-82), this colorful lithograph offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of tarot. Also known as "Judgement" this particular card is part of a series of 74 cards originally crafted for Francesco Sforza and Bianca Maria Visconti. The intricate design and symbolism reflect their desire to explore divination and fortune-telling through these beautifully illustrated cards. Intriguingly, "The Angel" depicts scenes reminiscent of graveyards and funerary rituals. Trumpets sound in judgment as angels soar above, guiding souls towards their ultimate destiny. The crypt-like setting with its sarcophagus adds an air of mystery to this enigmatic artwork. Not only does this image capture the essence of medieval Italian artistry, but it also highlights the significance that music played during divination practices in ancient times. The inclusion of various musical instruments further enhances the atmosphere, creating an aura that transports us back to fifteenth-century Italy. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are reminded not only of its historical importance but also its role in games and entertainment throughout history. Whether used for fortune
