Hab.t de Siam from playing cards "Jeu d'Or" 18th century

This anonymous 18th-century playing card from the "Jeu d'Or" deck depicts a figure in colorful clothing, likely meant to represent a person from Siam (modern-day Thailand). The card's design utilizes vibrant colors and a simple composition, typical of 18th-century playing card art. The figure is standing with a raised hand, perhaps gesturing or performing an action, contributing to the card's playful and engaging aesthetic. This card, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, provides a glimpse into the cultural depictions and artistic styles prevalent in European playing card design during this period.
