The Empress - A Timeless Symbol of Power and Feminine Energy
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases a fascimile of "The Empress" a tarot card from the renowned Visconti deck. Created between 1441-47, this exquisite piece of art is attributed to Bonifacio Bembo, an esteemed Italian artist from the 15th century. Measuring at 17.5x8.7 cm, this color lithograph depicts Card III of the Major Arcana series. The Empress sits majestically on her throne, radiating strength and grace. Her regal presence symbolizes power, fertility, and abundance - embodying the essence of feminine energy. Originally commissioned for Francesco Sforza and Bianca Maria Visconti, this card is part of a larger set consisting of 74 cards (originally 78). Each card in the deck served as a tool for divination and gameplay during that era. The intricate details captured in this print highlight the craftsmanship behind each stroke by Bembo's skilled hand. From the delicate features on The Empress' face to her elaborate shield adorned with symbols representing prosperity and protection - every element tells a story. As we gaze upon this timeless masterpiece from our private collection today, it serves as a reminder of how art has transcended time to preserve cultural heritage. It invites us to explore ancient traditions such as tarock or tarocchi while appreciating their artistic value beyond mere entertainment.
