The Fool

My fool is a young man doing a handstand with his head bent back smelling a white rose from a bush. The rose bush is growing on a ledge of a cliff. Under his hands the stick holding his rucksack. The fool’s belongings are on a ledge dangling over the cliff. The white shirt of the fool is fallen towards his head exposing his stomach, and his brown leather pants and yellow boots are over his head. He has a red feather lodged in his boot. There are mountains in the background and bright white sun in the sky and a valley below with a river and trees. The path ahead moves upward along the cliff. There is a white dog pulling on his shit away from the ledge. The card has the traditional 0 at the top and is titled in Latin at the bottom: “Scurra”. The painting will, like others in the series, have the elemental symbol of the card (air) in the left bottom corner and the planetary symbol for the card (Uranus) in the right bottom corner.
