Rachel, queen of Diamonds
I started my design for playing cards. It is one of Ladyes. In the Paris pattern, each court card is identified as a particular historical or mythological personage as follows:
Queen of Hearts - Judith, Biblical figure;
Queen of Diamonds - Rachel, Biblical figure;
Queen of Spades - Pallas, an epithet of the goddess Athena;
Queen of Clubs - Argine,an anagram of Regina (Latin for "queen").
