EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Ten of Swords" a facsimile of a tarot card from the Visconti deck. Created between 1441 and 1447 by Bonifacio Bembo, this color lithograph measures 17.5x8.7 cm and is currently held in a private collection. Part of a larger series of 74 cards (originally 78), these exquisite works were commissioned for Francesco Sforza and Bianca Maria Visconti. The intricate design features ornamental swords crossed over each other, symbolizing conflict or betrayal. Surrounding the swords are vibrant flowers and leaves, adding an element of beauty to the otherwise ominous scene. Tarot cards have long been associated with divination and fortune-telling practices. In medieval times, they were used as a pastime or game, but also carried symbolic meanings that could be interpreted by skilled cartomancers or card readers. The Visconti deck holds significant historical value as it represents the transition from traditional playing cards to tarot decks during the Renaissance period. This particular card falls under the category of minor arcana within the deck's structure. With its gold leaf accents and meticulous craftsmanship, "The Ten of Swords" serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a tool for clairvoyance or prediction. Its presence evokes curiosity about ancient superstitions surrounding tarot symbolism while offering us glimpses into centuries-old traditions that continue to captivate our imagination today.
