Misfitz - King Lion: A Playful Take on the Regal Lion in a Turn-of-the-Century Card Game This charming and whimsical image, titled 'Misfitz - King Lion,' showcases a humanized lion in all its regal glory, taken from an early 20th century card or game segment. The lion, with its majestic mane and proudly worn crown, exudes an air of royalty and power. However, its playful expression and the silly context of the card suggest that this game was not meant to be taken too seriously. The lion's body is expertly rendered with intricate detail, from the textured fur on its back to the delicate lines of its facial features. The crown atop its head, made of a simple yet elegant stick design, adds to the lion's regal appearance. The overall design of the card is reminiscent of the Art Deco style, with its bold lines and geometric shapes. The association of animals, particularly lions, with games and cards is a long-standing tradition. Lions have long been symbols of power, courage, and strength, making them a popular choice for game pieces and cards. In this image, the lion's wild and untamed nature is captured in a humanized form, making for a delightful and entertaining addition to any card game. This print, from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the playful and imaginative ways in which early 20th century designers and illustrators brought animals to life in their work. Whether used as part of a collection, displayed in a home or office, or incorporated into a creative project, this print is sure to bring a touch of whimsy and wonder to any space.
