Sure. The Tarot deck has a series of figures, usually called the Major Arcana. They also have associated art. These figures are very basic patterns / archetypes present in the world, a King, the Devil, Lovers, the Sun, etc. People analyze these archetypes along with the art, for example, what did the medieval christians who invented the Tarot deck mean by this image?

It is analogous to meditating on the Litany of the Blessed Virgin, which contains rich images to ponder on (Seat of Wisdom, House of Gold, etc.). Or for that matter meditating on different animals (How do deer represent Jesus, Our Lady, the Church or me. What can I learn from deer?).
Only the image you have portrayed here -- and hence the point of the original post and original article -- is that this is not simply "artwork" "portraying" a "king".
It is portraying the *downfall* of a king, and hence could be interpreted (and rightly interpreted) as an attempt to invoke a curse or cursing a king or leader.
This is the real problem behind these things.
