Five of Pentacles
Two figures walk through falling snow beneath a lighted window containing five pentacles. One figure uses crutches while the other bends forward beneath a cloak; the window rises above both within a densely dark wall. The illuminated window remains above and apart from the difficult passage of the figures below. Pamela Colman Smith’s design appears in the 1916 Illustrated Key to the Tarot.
