Like the classical tarots, this deck marks the coming of age of Tarot in Italy. The classic design of the Marseilles decks, reinvented by an anonymous artist, exemplifies 19th century Italian art: detailed, symbolic, and richly colored in vibrant greens, muted reds, and vivid golds. Beautifully costumed array of Tarot archetypes are presented here, along with delicately ornamented Marseilles style pips. The card names are in Italian and the numbers of the Major Arcana appear in all four corners and at the center top.

 

The cards are new. Never used.  The box imagery is different than any one I could find online. It has some wear and tear.  I have taped the bottom to preserve the integrity of the box. Does not have the instruction booklet, unfortunately.

 

Minchiate was a popular card game in Florence in the 16th century. In this 97-card deck, we find the traditional Tarot trumps and minors along with additional cards. The Major Arcana includes the seven virtues, the four elements, and the twelve signs of the Zodiac. In this carefully and beautifully reproduced deck nothing is added-it's simply the cards in their original lavish color and design; even the backs of the cards are reproduced from the original 1725 deck. Historically important, symbolically fascinating, and decidedly engaging, Minchiate is enjoying its own renaissance.

An important deck for any student, collector, or enthusiast, this reproduction of a historic Marseilles deck conveys a sense of antiquity and mystery. The Ancient Tarots of Marseilles is a reproduction of a deck originally created in 1760 by Nicolas Conver. No additions were made to the cards' original design. Conver's deck contains two unusual details: the Two of Coins contains the artist's name and the year the cards were drawn, and the artist added his name and the word "France" to the Page of Coins.

 

The cards are new and have not been used.  The cards are not shrink wrapped. The box has very slight wear on the top.

Likewise, the Greek gods played a similar role in their day. This natural union of tarot cards and the Greek pantheon is beautifully presented in the Olympus Tarot. Characters and scenes from Theogeny, Jason and the Argonauts, the Iliad and the Odyssey, and other exciting works of Greek mythology find themselves at home in the tarot.

Italian artist Luigi Scapini's lavish paintings recreate 15th century Italy in this gold-accented tarot deck. The Major Arcana and court cards have gold backgrounds in the manner of fifteenth-century European decks. Both the Major and Minor Arcana include full scenes. In the Minors, symmetrical arrangements of the suit symbols provide composition around which the scenes are arranged. The depth of Scapini's art history expertise is evident in his lush settings and period costumes. Interesting details, and sometimes-humorous references, are cleverly imbedded in the artwork, with many of the cards depicting historical figures, for example, Rasputin as the Knight of Cups. Readers will easily relate to the universal situations revealed in the cards, for pleasurable and insightful readings.
