Many of the characters in Alice in Wonderland are playing cards and their jobs were carefully selected by Carroll. The King, Queen and Knave of Hearts are the most obvious examples.

The other picture cards represent visiting royalty, the ace to ten of hearts are the royal children, the ace to ten of diamonds are courtiers, the ace to ten of clubs are soldiers and the ace to ten of spades are gardeners; the two, five and seven of spades being the unlucky souls who planted the wrong roses and have to paint them red.
