The Story in the Margin
This engraving is one of the so-called Mantegna Tarocchi, a set of fifty prints made in Ferrara around 1465 — not actually by Mantegna, and not playing cards — that map the whole Renaissance order of the cosmos, from beggars and kings up through the planets and the sciences to the muses. Here Poetry personifies the inspired art of verse.

It looks great in the family room and my wife noticed it before I said anything. The colors in Poetry, Mantegna Tarocchi came through almost exactly as I hoped.
I have bought three of these now for different rooms. I have been hunting for a good version of Poetry, Mantegna Tarocchi for two years. This is what buying online should feel like.
It came packed so well that opening it took ten minutes… ⭐
