Master of the E-Series Tarocchi

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an upper half of a person with a dual-profile face, wearing draped clothing resembling a toga or robe. The individual has two faces merging at the back of the head, one looking left and the other slightly more to the right. Both faces have similar features with prominent noses and lips. The hair is textured and styled in waves over the head. The figure's hands are clasped in front. The background features a framed border with diagonal lines and a semicircular pattern filled with stars below, with the text "THEOLOGIA XXV" written underneath.
