In the page of pentacles we see a young man gazing at a single pentacle. His attire is that of a royal family or at least a wealthy family. He stands in a field, another ploughed field visible in the background. Mountains frame the back of the image.

The robe is inscribed with crests, possibly family crests. On the archway above him is another crest, possibly the town or village crest while there […]
Nine of Pentacles
In the Nine of Pentacles we see a lady dressed in splendid attire. Around her are nine pentacles and she gently rests her hand on one of them. In her raised hand is a bird. She seems to be contemplating it. Surrounding her is lush vegetation, a vineyard. In the background, we glimpse the now familiar home or village.
Eight of Pentacles
In the eight of pentacles we see a man labouring with a chisel and hammer, carving pentacles. Six pentacles are stacked up along a tree trunk. He works at one pentacle while another lies finished at his feet. He sits on a bench with the pentacle he works on propped up to allow for accurate and steady carving. In the […]
Seven of Pentacles
In the seven of pentacles we see a man contemplating six pentacles in a bush. A seventh pentacle lies at his feet and he leans on his staff or working implement while he gazes at the bush. The background looks like a field that he has been working.
Six of Pentacles
In the six of pentacles we see a well off gentleman giving money to beggars. In his other hand he holds a scales. We get a glimpse of a village or home in the background. The man is well dressed in luxurious clothes.
Five of Pentacles
The five of pentacles depicts very poor people outside what looks like a church or building of some significance. They are in rags, with the child hobbling along on a crutch. Above them is an ornate glass window with the five pentacles displayed on it. The snow on the ground outside makes the setting all the more wretched.
Four of Pentacles
The Four of Pentacles depicts a man seated, tightly holding onto one of his pentacles. One sits atop his head another two are beneath each feet. The man”s face is neither smiling or sad, yet it conveys an image of worry or seriousness. In the background is a city or town.
Three of Pentacles
In a scene set in a church a mason works while talking to two holy men or monks. The mason has his tools in his hands, elevated off the floor by a small bench. The two holy men are holding papers, possibly drawings or instructions.
Two of Pentacles
A man similar to the Fool in the Major Arcana is depicted, balancing a pentacle in either hand. Wrapped around them is the symbol of infinity. In the background are waves with two ships making their way through them.
