ARCANUM Tarot Card Back

Generated from: Tarot card back illustration, portrait format, full-bleed. Style: flat hand-coloured woodcut and linocut print, bold even black outlines, no soft shading, printed on aged cream paper with visible paper grain, fibre flecks and slight mottling like an antique card from a 1900s deck. Limited muted antique palette: ochre gold, deep indigo blue, sage green, brick red, bone cream; flat ink washes only. Design: one radially symmetrical occult emblem centred on the card. A large all-seeing eye with radiating lashes sits inside a radiant sunburst of straight tapered rays, enclosed by an ouroboros serpent biting its own tail forming a ring. A crescent moon flanks the eye on each side, mirrored, with a single five-pointed star between each crescent and the sunburst. The space is filled symmetrically with hermetic and alchemical marks, planetary-like geometric sigils, small circles, lozenges and fine engraved linework, all mirrored left to right so nothing is off-centre. An ornate double-ruled border with small corner bosses frames the whole card, slightly worn at the edges. In the lower third, centred horizontally, the word ARCANUM in uppercase small-caps serif lettering, evenly letterspaced, carved into the engraving like the rest of the print. Symmetrical, centred focal point. No other letters, no words, no gibberish script, no signature, no numbers.
