Flower and Fruits: the art jokers

The art section is diverse covering classic art, modern art, mystical and death jokers, statues, masks, and flowers and fruit. This it the flower and fruit joker section. Enjoy, and remember to take time to smell the flowers.

These next two pages while currently grouped in the flower and fruit section of the artsy jokers, probably will be moved to a new home, as soon as I can figure out where.

The Art and Artsy Joker section is made up of several subsections.

1. Beautiful art jokers: classical, digital, and   flowers, fruit, mermaids
2. Card-themed Jokers (YES, this is intentional) 
3. Mystical, deathly, and devils. Pirates too.
4. Masks
5. Statues 

The Percussion Section: Musical Jokers

In an orchestra, there are a few big categories of musicians and instruments: the string instruments, the wind (and brass) instruments, and the percussion. 

The percussion is built around the drums but it includes bells and oddly, the piano. Should the piano forte really be considered a string instrument since after all, there are strings? That’s a question beyond my pay grade but it’s been explained to me that pianos, because you strike the strings rather than stroke or pluck them, counts as a percussion instrument.

4. Ensemble Trios

Plus, there are  jokers with Musicians including an Elvis section.

Scatterman - The Cartamundi Jester Joker

One of most classic jesters with tons of variations. I have 90 here and frankly, I’m a little bored or overwhelmed looking at all the tiny variations. 

Jokers - not jesters - Standing

 These jokers are not court jesters or clowns. They are standing (well, sometimes striding) and do not have weapons and are dancing. 

 This article has jokers but not jesters, maybe standing still or walking, and with NO wand. In includes some ladies and some robots.  It excludes:

- Jesters with NO WAND standing
- STANDING jesters with Wands
- Walking Jesters with Wands
- Juggling Jesters
- Performing Jesters with cards or without cards
- Sitting Jokers
- Dancing Jokers

We'll start with a female joker, but not a jester.

Then an example of a robot.

Here are the ensemble shots of jokers (not jesters) standing or maybe walking. First, eight standing lady jokers.

More ladies

Robots!!

There are 5 pages of these jokers with wands. 

Let’s dig deeper into the categories on this next nine. In the middle of this next nine, there’s a jester holding a stick. #confusing! But the stick does not have a jesters head on it: it has the four suits. If it wasn’t such a minor detail, that card would have been put in the “cards about cards” section. On the top left, the jester is talking. He’s almost performing. On his right, there’s a jester atop a ball. This seems to me to be a performer or juggler ( balancer?), I might have to move him. The 3 in the middle row have movement but aren’t dancing. Ditto on bottom row middle.

More Qs on categories. Top row middle is holding a tiny deck of cards, should he be moved?

Here's a typical walking jester with a wand. I think I bought him in Russia, long ago.

And here are the ensemble shots...

These last four are from Italy (Per Tom van Berkum)  it's published by Cambissa & Co. since 1956.

Standing Jesters with Wands

 There are so many jester-type jokers that I'm made increasingly fine distinctions to keep them organized into small enough groups. This article is about Jesters STANDING (not walking, dancing, or performing) that are holding jesters wands.  Here's what I think of as the most classic joker and the epitome of this type of joker.

   

There about six full pages and one partial in this category.
