The Venice Carnevale is probably the world's most beautiful festival, characterised by the masked costumers. Venetian masks are a popular theme with Tarot cards. The Tarot is a 600-year-old tradition pack of playing cards, used from the mid-15th century in various parts of Europe to play games such as Italian tarocchini, French tarot and Austrian Königrufen. The Justice card in Tarot is about reason, truth, and, of course justice. The portrait is done in Venice 2020.
