Poetry, ca. 1465–67, Engraving, Image: 6 9/16 x 3 1/2 in. (16.6 x 8.9 cm), Prints, Anonymous, Italian, Ferrarese, 15th century, The fifty engravings of the so-called Tarocchi di Mantegna were not designed by the Mantuan artist Andrea Mantegna and do not form a true tarot deck, for they lack suits, number cards, and face cards. Possibly intended as a didactic game or booklet, the series of images illustrates the hierarchy of the universe, from the lowly beggar to the celestial spheres
