Thanks for posting the Lollio, Pen.
And yes, Lorredan, I'd say Justice seems to change its meaning, between low and high end.
I will try to figure out what you mean by
Malatesta's Temple or at least before it was bombed looked like Tarot 22 not Ludus triumpi 14.
One minor issue: I didn't know Malatesta's temple (in Rimini) was bombed. It looked OK when I was there, at least on the outside: I had trouble finding it, on a day it closed early, and I couldn't get in. (Actually, I can't imagine what you mean, reading the description of the Temple. What do planets, the zodiac, and bunches of angels have to do with the tarot at that early date?)
And also
I see that my problems with the Hermit at 11 after WOF in some sequences, has been considered from going from 14 triumphs- to 16- to 22.
You see the Hermit looks like poverty in most decks except the Visconti- where he looks Jewish as in Covetedness, possible opposite to Justice
I assume you mean the PMB. Well, he's a devourer, I'll say that much for him. Isn't he Time, Chronos, the 5th Petrarchan Triumph, holding his hourglass? As such, he's also Saturn, Kronos, who was considered the Jewish god (worshiped on Saturn's day), another devourer of human flesh. He looks a lot like the Tarot of Mantegna's Saturn, too. He's definitely not poor. But covetousness is a stretch, much less an opposite to Justice.
I like to think in terms of pairs, too (and that's part of the charm of the chess theory, and also the Scrovegni Chapel theory, as far as they go). Regarding the Hermit, I tend to want to pair him with the WOF. The same figure is on the bottom of the WOF card, without his finery. And both have to do with time.
Maybe I should say what I mean by "Scrovegni Chapel theory." On the one hand, it's the idea that Giotto's figures influenced the subjects of the tarot. On the other hand, I have a crazy version of it that I've been playing with before you mentioned the pairs there, in what is probably a very different context. I'm not sure it qualifies as a theory; fantasy might be a better term. I've been thinking that at least one of the pairs--maybe three--comes from there: Popess, card 2 (Faith) - Hanged Man, card 12 (Despair). That's the clearest. There's also Magician (Prudence, at table, left hand raised, eyes to side, keeps her wits about her) - Fool (Stupidity). And the Tower, card 15, is Inconstancy, but I'm not sure what it's paired with; maybe the Pope, card 5 (Giotto's Justice). Either that or the Popess is Justice (for women, answering their despair) and the Pope is Faith. For me it's how the Cary-Yale, with 16 chesslike trumps that come from Petrarch plus the virtues (Fame/Judgment (Eternity), Death/Chariot (Chastity), Time/Wheel, Emperor/Empress, 8 virtues (including Love), could have expanded into 21 (dropping one of the virtues, Prudence), to make what was probably the "standard tarot" for a while. And getting another pair, Pope/Popess, in the bargain. Feel free to ignore this paragraph!
Added later: more explanation of the pairs. Fame and Judgment are a pair in that both in the CY have trumpets ( little like elephants-- rook--with their trunks(. Death and Chariot are a pair because both have horses.
