81/1083 [Games and toys]. (Cardgame of complementary figures). Series of 23 (of 25?) engr. cards, late early 18th cent., each 10x6,2 cm., each card laid down on board, with a honeycomb pattern w. repeated stylized face of the sun in each comb on verso.

= Consists of 5 sets of cards (3x 5 cards and 2x 4 cards), each set consisting of two types of cards: 3 cards w. a diagonally divided engraving showing a man opposite a woman and 2 cards that show the full-length man/ the full-length woman (two of the 5 sets only with one of the 2 complete figures). The two figures seem to have a thematic relationship with each other: 1. a man carrying a rooster in his arms and a large knife under one of his arms (intent on slaughtering the rooster?), opposite a woman carrying a basket filled with eggs; 2. a praying man seated on his knees captured in a cage, opposite a seated woman spinning wool (waiting for her husband's release?); 3. a poorly clad barefoot man holding a club above his head in menacing manner, opposite a woman swinging a bunch of large keys above her head as if to hit him (thief versus victim); 4. a man looking at a bottle that he holds up (like a drunkard), opposite a woman sitting behind a barred window; 5. a man trying to kill a couple of rats with his shoe, opposite a half nude woman. (The final 2 sets (no. 4 and 5) are more difficult to interpret because both lack the full-length engraving of the woman. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE XXVIII.
