EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Knight of Wands" a facsimile of a tarot card from the Visconti deck. Created between 1441-47, this color lithograph by Bonifacio Bembo (c. 1420-82) is an exquisite piece of art that measures 17.5x8.7 cm and belongs to a private collection. Part of a larger series of 74 cards initially crafted for Francesco Sforza and Bianca Maria Visconti, this particular card holds immense symbolism and mystique. It represents themes such as superstition, fortune-telling, escape, and travel. Intriguingly mounted on horseback, the knight depicted in the image appears to be fleeing or moving swiftly towards an unknown destination. The presence of horses adds another layer to its symbolism - animals often associated with strength, freedom, and wildness. With gold leaf accents adding shimmering details to the artwork's intricate design, this medieval-inspired tarot card exudes an air of magic and clairvoyance. Its purpose lies in divination and prediction - offering insight into one's future or providing guidance during times of change. Whether you are fascinated by cartomancy or simply appreciate Renaissance-era artistry at its finest, "The Knight of Wands" print will undoubtedly captivate your imagination with its rich history and enigmatic allure
