Mantegna Tarocchi “Fool (Beggar) with Dog” might be the earliest. There are good chances, that this figure was influenced by Alberti’s (= Lucian’s) Momus (written 1443 - 1450) and Momus declared (in Alberti’s text), that he found the role as beggar quite interesting … and further by the theme “Diogenes with dogs”. Some estimate the Mantegna Tarocchi (E-series) to 1465, we suggest 1475
