About the Artist
Lauron William de Laurence was an early 20th-century American occult publisher and author, renowned for making esoteric knowledge accessible to a broad audience. He played a pivotal role in the modern occult revival, distributing ritual texts, divination decks, and manuals that brought Hermetic and ceremonial magic into popular culture. His work bridged the gap between mystical traditions and everyday seekers, shaping the visual language of spiritual self-help in his era.
The Artwork
The Magician tarot card embodies the archetype of willpower, skill, and creative manifestation. In tarot tradition, this figure represents the ability to channel inspiration into tangible results, marking new beginnings and the mastery of one's tools. Created in 1918, this image reflects a time when spiritualism and personal transformation were flourishing in print culture, and tarot imagery was gaining popularity as both a mystical and decorative element in the home.
Style & Characteristics
The artwork features a full-length figure of the Magician, outlined in strong black lines and set against a luminous golden-yellow background. The figure stands behind a table displaying symbolic tools—a wand, cup, sword, and pentacle—each rendered with simplified, graphic clarity. The palette is dominated by warm yellow and beige tones, with black and soft gray accents providing contrast and legibility. The overall effect is both instructional and theatrical, making it a striking example of early 20th-century esoteric art.
In Interior Design
This tarot poster brings a sense of focus and intention to spaces like studies, meditation corners, or entryways. Its vertical format is ideal for narrow walls or gallery arrangements, pairing seamlessly with other vertical posters. The golden and black hues complement warm woods, brass accents, and neutral walls, and the graphic style makes it a natural companion to black and white prints in a curated display.
