Master of the E-Series Tarocchi

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a male figure, bald and nude, standing with their right hand to their mouth. The figure is standing on a patch of ground with sparse vegetation. Behind the figure are two small trees. A brick wall appears behind the trees, and a distant building is visible on the left. The figure stands on a rectangular area with the word "MISERO" inscribed at the bottom. The entire scene is framed by a rope-like border. In the upper-right corner of the frame is a circular emblem featuring two human figures. The image has a rough, aged appearance. The background behind the frame is off-white.
