EDITORS COMMENTS
This close-up print of the "Queen of Hearts, c1929" takes us back to the enchanting world of playing cards in the early 20th century. From the first edition of Cir-Q-Lar playing cards by John Waddington Ltd, this image showcases a stunning red Queen of Hearts against a pristine white background. The monochrome color scheme adds an air of elegance and timelessness to this piece. The intricate details and symmetry in this artwork highlight its artistic value. The repetition of hearts creates a sense of rhythm and harmony within the circular composition. This studio shot perfectly captures the essence of literature and pastime associated with playing cards. Reminiscent of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, where the Queen plays a significant role, this female likeness exudes power and authority. Her regal presence is emphasized by her position as one among many queens in a deck full of characters. The print collector has skillfully preserved this piece from Wilson Barrett's original design for Cir-Q-Lar playing cards, making it an object worth cherishing for art enthusiasts and collectors alike. Whether displayed as part of a vintage collection or used as inspiration for contemporary designs, this print serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence.
