This is the Queen of Hearts from a pack of large Tarot cards (called Taroch or Tarok in German). Cards in this pack measure 74 x 129mm. Queens are worth 4 points in the game of Tarot. Game of Tarot ((jeu de tarot)) cards are used in ordinary card games rather than in cartomancy / divination. The history of Tarot goes back to 15th century Italy. There were 78 cards, including 21 'trump' cards and a 'fool' or 'skeench' dressed as a harlequin, which in modern packs would be called a joker. The large numbers of cards and the complicated rules led to a decline in the popularity of these Tarot card games. Austrian Taroch cards use French symbols (clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades), and a simplified pack numbering 54, which still includes the 21 trumps plus the fool. These make up the 22 'Taroch' cards. This particular pack was made by Piatnik (Vienna) in 1900.
