really a study in mending
And a pretty great one I think
with gold also used for the reeds and grasses at her feet
and the great steeple on that church
C. 1850 Hand-colored Queen of Clubs Transformation Card folk carvings really a study in mendingI believe this queen of clubs was part of a transformation card deck, c. 1850s often the royal cards in these decks just featured figures, while it was the pips of the numbered cards that were transformed incorporated into images. What I find especially intruiging is that her arms, though I presume actually intended to read as crossed, appear to me as if cut off at the elbows and left as stumps, which thus makes her veil read all the more as if tears
