Queen of Arts : Women Artists Playing Cards Cards

Illustrated by Laura Callaghan

Cards

Pre-Order

Description

Reshuffle art history with Queen of Arts, a beautifully illustrated deck of playing cards and book spotlighting the lives, work and legacies of fifty-four remarkable women. Did you know that the four suits of a modern-day deck of playing cards once represented the four classes of society in medieval France?

Hearts represented the clergy, Spades the nobility, Diamonds the merchants and Clubs the peasants.

Author Lydia Miller has reimagined these suits as Seers, Warriors, Influencers and Dissenters, curating the fifty-four women artists featured based on these categories.

Laura Callaghan’s stunning, detail-packed illustrations will make you want to flip open the accompanying guide to learn about each artist.
