Fragment of the Queen of Spades. Upper half of the card. The Queen faces left and the pip is located at upper right. The figure holds a yellow rose in her left hand. There is a crease across the card where it has been folded. A handwritten inscription on the verso in black ink: ‘Corporation’s Arms’.’ There are two holes at upper centre, which are most likely stitching holes relating to the secondary use of the card as a stiffening material for bookbinding. Hand-coloured woodcut on pasteboard. French, 17th century.
