vivdunstan: (oracle cards)
[personal profile] vivdunstan
I recently bought artist Eugene Vinitski's Renaissance Venice inspired Tarot and Lenormand oracle card decks. Tried the first the other week - very pleased with it. Started looking at the second tonight. Gorgeous art. Nice accompanying book. Though I will need another to learn this new to me system.

Richly illustrated cards laid out on a red patterned cloth. The cards are Renaissance art style, including the doge's ceremonial barge, a woman sweeping the floor, looking out towards a palazzo, a glimpse of moonlit Venice, a stork looking out to the Grand Canal, and more. Each card includes a small traditional playing card image in the top right, and a number at bottom left. Above the 6 cards shown in detail others are spread open and some can be glimpsed more than others.

Being me, my eye was almost entirely trained on 11 Clubs and the costume the woman is wearing...
It's possible that her apron has a dangling bit at the sides - like the one in this picture-

and then the sides have been pulled up and tucked through the top of her petticoat (skirt), to give that angled drape while she's working.
