Ten of Cups
Two adults raise their arms beneath an arc of ten cups as two children dance beside a distant home and stream. The adults look upward, but the children’s paired movement occupies its own foreground activity. The children’s dance supplies a second action beneath the adults’ raised arms. Pamela Colman Smith’s design is reproduced in the 1916 Illustrated Key to the Tarot.
