This captivating project aimed to create a series of four cards featuring the iconic figures of the king, queen, jack, and an additional character, all based on meticulous research on a personally selected topic. The project offered ample creative freedom while adhering to essential guidelines, such as incorporating a mesmerizing repetition vector pattern for the card backs and inverting face characters when utilized.
Diving into the historical background of card decks, revealing that the jack was initially a prince frequently mistaken for the king, leading to its transformation into the jack. Thus, it made logical sense to replace the jack with a 'P' to represent the Prince's name, not only reflecting historical accuracy but also infusing the card with the Prince's captivating persona as the central figure of his own story.
