The Moon
A moon with a human face hangs above two towers, two animals and a small creature rising from water. A narrow path leads between the towers towards distant hills. The path carries the eye from the foreground pool through the towers towards distant hills. Pamela Colman Smith’s design is reproduced in the 1916 Illustrated Key to the Tarot.
