la belle dame sans merci

la belle dame sans merci
Cut-paper postcard created for the Kollage Kit. Title (obviously) from the John Keats poem. Images of golden dame and machinery plus pink fire are from separate Astounding magazine covers in the 1930s. Tarot cards of the Tower, the Empress, and the Hanged Man are from an Italian version of the Marseilles deck, the images on which may date back to the early 1500s: Hanged Man is upside down by accident, but it's kind of fitting. =smile=

☺ Sooooo very 1930s pop paperback. Delicious. And I like the "upsidedown" Hanged Man. Makes a change for the poor chappie, innit?
