The Sun, a Fascimile of a Tarot Card from the Visconti Deck - A Glimpse into Ancient Divination
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases "The Sun" an exquisite fascimile of a tarot card from the renowned Visconti deck. Created between 1441 and 1447 by Antonio Cicognara, this colourful lithograph offers us a glimpse into the world of divination during the fifteenth century. Originally consisting of 78 cards, this particular series was commissioned for Francesco Sforza and Bianca Maria Visconti. Each card held symbolic significance in gameplay as well as in fortune-telling practices. "The Sun" belongs to the major arcana, specifically card XIX or trump. It features an enchanting cherub-like figure known as putto surrounded by radiant beams of sunlight. As we explore this image further, we are transported back in time to witness players engaging in tarocchi games using these mystical cards. The intricate details and vibrant hues bring life to each element portrayed on "The Sun". From its playful composition to its divine symbolism, it is evident that these cards were not just tools for entertainment but also gateways to spiritual exploration. Now preserved within a private collection, this fascinating piece reminds us of our enduring fascination with ancient traditions and their ability to transcend time. Let us marvel at how art can capture moments frozen in history while igniting our curiosity about age-old practices such as divination and game-playing through tarot cards.
