- Why
- The rhyme is in the social life of the image: an authored design becomes a repeatable object that can be traded, collected, and carried far beyond its first audience. It is a material and historical echo, not a claim of visual quotation or influence.
- Curation
- agent-assisted · provisional. Proposed by an agent at Yu's direction; identities and rights were checked against the linked sources. The interpretation remains open to human review.
- Confidence
- medium · Object identity, medium, and rights are source-backed; the cross-object rhyme is an explicitly labelled curatorial interpretation rather than causation.
- Rights
- Card image: reference-only, NOASSERTION. Museum image: CC0 / Public Domain (per linked sources). Card and artwork rights remain separate. CC0 on this annotation does not license the card image; follow each object's own rights record.
