EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Musicha (Music) c. 1465" by Master of the E-Series Tarocchi takes us back to 15th century Italy, offering a glimpse into the world of tarot cards and their educational purpose. Measuring at 17.7x9.9 cm, this engraving with gilding is housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC. Tarocchi cards were originally designed as visual aids for privileged Italian children, aiming to educate them through art and symbolism. The E-series set, one of the earliest known sets, holds great historical significance due to its rarity and influence on subsequent copies. In this particular image, we see a woman gracefully playing musical instruments while surrounded by various elements associated with music and liberal arts. A swan elegantly glides nearby as if enchanted by her melodies. The presence of a young girl holding a flute adds an element of innocence and youthfulness to the scene. The intricate details captured in this plate engraving showcase Ferrara's artistic prowess during that era. Gilded accents further enhance the beauty and opulence depicted within the artwork. This enchanting portrayal not only offers us insight into Italian culture but also serves as a reminder that art has always played an essential role in education throughout history.
