Visual Description
A young woman in a white embroidered skirt, black apron and a red headscarf climbs a rope ladder into a starry night, reaching upward with one hand. In the distance a dark silhouetted castle sits beneath a pale moon and layered clouds. Three upright wooden wands or posts rise from the lower right with green leaves sprouting around them. The ladder’s rungs are bound with red ties and small red marks appear like berries or drops near the wands; the card title 'Three of Wands' appears at the bottom and the artist signature is visible.
