EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Justice tarot card from the Charles VI or Gringonneur deck, a hand-painted masterpiece dating back to the 15th century. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this Italian School creation are truly mesmerizing. Housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this card was initially believed to be designed for King Charles VI's amusement but is now thought to have been part of a set of playing cards. The Justice tarot card holds immense symbolic power as it represents superstition, allegory, fortune-telling, and prophetic abilities. Its presence in cartomancy has made it an essential tool for predicting one's fate and unraveling hidden truths. The image itself portrays a figure hanging by their feet with scales held delicately in hand - a visual representation of impartiality and balance. As we delve into this artwork's rich history and meaning, we are transported to an era where divination played a significant role in people's lives. This print not only captures the beauty of this ancient artifact but also invites us to explore our own beliefs about destiny and justice.
