Kortas - ant stalo... XIX-XX a. pr. Europos gamintojų kortos iš LDM rinkinių

LTPublikacijoje pristatoma LDM grafikos rinkiniuose saugoma XIX-XX a. pr. Europos gamintojų žaidimų kortų kolekcija, kurioje daugiau kaip trys dešimtys įvairių spalvingų ir įdomių Europos gamintojų kortų malkų. Jos sudaro nedidelę ir visai netyrinėtą kolekciją, kuri šioje publikacijoje pirmą kartą išsamiai pristatoma. Pagrindinis straipsnio tikslas – nustatyti kortų gamintoją, klasifikuoti bei atributuoti kolekcijos eksponatus, aptarti jų stilistikos ypatumus, sutinkamų motyvų originalumą bei išskirti tipingas regionines kortų malkų savybes ir, remiantis analogais, aptarti regioninius kortų stilistikos ypatumus, tipologiją, motyvų originalumą.

ENThe publication presents a collection of playing cards of European manufacturers of the XIX century - early XX century stored at the Lithuanian Art Museum. It consists of 30 decks of cards representing the traditions and stylistic kaleidoscope of the card manufacturers and original regional motives. The regional stylistic features and typology of cards are discussed on the basis of analogues. Playing cards are attributable to the small genre of applied graphics. Therefore, the article was aimed at discussing also the artistic qualities of cards and the individual style of artists. The museum's collection consists of Italian and Swiss classic tarot cards, Austrian and Hungarian tarok cards, unique and accurate copies of educational cards of Italian Mannerism painter Stefano della Bella, German, Polish, French, Swiss, Italian and Russian cards. The largest European card manufacturers and commercial card brands were presented in the collections. These are Piatnik, Grimaud, Altenburg, Dondorf, the Stralsund card factory, the Aleksandrov card manufactory, etc. The collection of playing cards stored at the LAM is not very large, but is certainly valuable as it presents playing card traditions of various European countries and several unique exhibits as well as gives an insight into two centuries of cultural manifestations of urban leisure. This is interesting visual documentation of those times, and, after being identified and classified, may be researched and studied more. [From the publication]
