EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Justice" we are transported back to the 15th century, where the Italian School masterfully brings to life an allegorical figure from the Gringonneur pack of tarot cards. This print, now part of a private collection, showcases the timeless symbolism and intricate details that have made tarot cards such enduring works of art. At the center of the composition stands Lady Justice herself, personified as a regal woman holding a sword in one hand and scales in the other. Her presence exudes authority and impartiality as she represents fairness and balance in all matters. The finely engraved lines highlight her flowing robes and delicate features, capturing both her strength and grace. Surrounded by swirling clouds, Lady Justice becomes an embodiment of justice itself - an abstract concept transformed into a tangible form through art. The inclusion of symbolic elements like swords and scales further emphasizes her role as arbiter, reminding us that justice requires both wisdom and judgment. This engraving serves as a testament to the power of visual storytelling throughout history. It invites viewers to contemplate not only its artistic beauty but also deeper philosophical questions about morality and ethics. As we gaze upon this piece from centuries past, we are reminded that justice is not confined to any particular era or culture; it remains an eternal ideal worth pursuing for all humanity.
