EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print showcases a set of French playing cards from the 19th century, now proudly displayed at the Victoria and Albert Museum. These exquisite cards are not your ordinary deck; they feature mythical characters that add an extra touch of enchantment to each game played with them. The image captures the intricate details and rich colors of these historic artifacts, transporting us back to a time when card games were a popular pastime in France. The studio shot allows us to appreciate every element of these cards, from the regal monarchs - kings and queens - depicted on each one, to the beautifully designed clubs and hearts symbols. As we gaze upon this piece of history, we can't help but marvel at its significance. It serves as a reminder of how games have always been an integral part of human culture, transcending time and borders. This particular deck takes us on a journey through 19th-century France, where people would gather around tables for hours on end, engaging in friendly competition while enjoying the company of others. Thanks to dedicated collectors like CM Dixon and institutions like the Victoria and Albert Museum's Museum of Ornamental Art, these treasures are preserved for future generations to admire. This photograph is not just an image; it represents our connection to our past and invites us to explore the beauty found within everyday objects.
