EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print titled "Tarot game. Picture of Epinal" takes us back in time to a world where card games were not just a pastime but also a window into the realm of mysticism and divination. The French School artist skillfully depicts an intriguing scene filled with symbolism and intrigue. In this image, we see a young girl engrossed in playing the tarot game, surrounded by various cards representing different aspects of life and spirituality. On one side stands the devil, tempting her with his sinister presence, while on the other side looms a god-like figure exuding wisdom and power. The moon shines brightly overhead, casting an ethereal glow on the tableau. The engraving showcases intricate details that invite contemplation - from lightning bolts symbolizing force to symbols denoting knowledge and fortune. It is evident that this homemade game was more than mere entertainment; it delved into realms beyond our comprehension. The inclusion of religious orders like Capuchin suggests that this tarot game had ties to occult sciences such as cartomancy and meteorology – practices used for predicting future events or understanding natural phenomena through mystical means. Leonard de Selva's photograph beautifully captures this historical artwork from a private collection, preserving its artistic value for generations to come. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to an era where play intertwined seamlessly with spiritual exploration - reminding us of humanity's timeless fascination with unlocking the mysteries of existence through games like these.
