"F. de la Carie" is a playing card from the "Jeu d'Or" deck, created anonymously in the 18th century and housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. This playing card features a woman in a blue dress and red sash, holding a basket of fruits. The card also displays a "9" for its numerical value, a symbol of the suit, and a French caption with a mathematical equation. This card is a testament to the artistic and cultural significance of playing cards in 18th-century France.
