Spanish term or phrase: Ancho de copas
This is actually from a label for a work of art. I think it is a card from the Spanish deck or the tarot...any ideas what it would be in English?

Explanation:
Hey, Wendy!

Ancho is what we call in Argentina to the ace of "cups". And "copas" is one of the suits of Spanish cards. I don't know if you're dealing with Tarot or playing cards. If you want to use poker card terminology, you'd need to use "ace of hearts". Maybe you can use "Ace of Cups".

Please check the references!

Thanks!

What I meant is that "Ancho" is "Ace" for Argentina; it can be any suit though!
