Visconti Tarot

I don't give this a good because there are several problems with this edition of the cards. To start with the positive, the Visconti Tarot istelf is a wonderful set of images and the gold reproduction of this set is good. Now for the negatives, which I believe make this set not worth the money. The modern images are very poor artistically and quite "pre-raphaelite" in character rather than early rennaisance as the original image cards are, so the faces of the modern character cards, especially the queens is very saccharine, sweet and out of character with the old images on the major arcana. The second issue I have with these is the quality of the card used, it is thin and flimsy, surely a heavier grade could have been used given the cost of these cards, so depite being beautiful to look at, they are certainly not beautiful or pleasing to the touch.

Anteriormente compré otra que resultó no ser dorada y compré esta porque tengo la de Nefertari de la misma marca y si es dorada realmente. La gracia de este tarot es esa, los adornos en color dorado. Es preciosa, tiene el tamaño adecuado para echar las cartas cómodamente. Estoy muy contenta. Hace años tuve el tarot Visconti que venía en unos fasciculos, pero solo venía la mitad, y quería tener la baraja entera, así que estaba buscando una baraja que fuera como la de aquellos fasciculos, esta es la misma, hasta del mismo tamaño, solo cambia el reverso de la carta, que es muy bonito, y la caja es negra en vez de verde, pero por fin la tengo.

Très jolie jeu de tarot de bonne qualité, carte un peu fine mais top.

History, Gold, Beauty! This is hands down the most beautifull Tarot deck I own and it's talking and reading like a dream. These are pip cards and you need to learn how to read those if you are buying. Rich gold undertones are done in a stunning restorative fashion. I love Lo Scarabeo decks as they are not very thick and shuffle easily. I don't have gigantic hands. This deck is perfect in size for me. The reason I love it 😍. I can carry this in my purse as well. I'm getting bang on readings. It can be used to read for clients who feel the luxurious energy of this deck and are now asking me to use my "Golden" cards for fortunetelling. Thankfully this one will be one of my workhorse decks. It's a treat for the senses. I'm a professional Sybil and read cards for predictive purposes. I especially enjoy pip cards as they give such clear answers without pictures coming in the way, because three of swords is not necessarily heartbreak you know, neither the five of cups a huge regret as shown in PC Smith pictures. That's only one interpretation out of many. If you read TdM you will love this deck too. This is old world Tarocchi. No new age BS. No astrology needed. No Kabbalah. None of that overkill. Plain and simple Tarocchi. Game anyone?

- The Visconti Tarot deck is stunningly rendered on quality card-stock in full colour, with a patterned gold foil background on all the Major Arcana and Court Cards. The beauty of this deck is truly astonishing. Even the cards of the minor arcana have lovely illustrations with gold foil highlights. The deck size is somewhat longer than a normal playing-cards deck, but not unmanageable for shuffling, etc. And the size does lend the entire deck an appearance of something extraordinary - even before one reveals the faces of the cards. - There are a number of reasons I chose this deck. After looking through literally hundreds of different styles of Tarot from across a half-dozen websites, I ordered this one for its colourfully intense and faithfully rendered early Renaissance artwork because I specifically want to use the deck in the context of historic reenactment events and themed parties, etc. The black background and muted colors of the symmetrical period illustration on the back of each card is lovely, yet not distracting, and it makes for a very dramatic contrast with the intense beauty of the colours and metallic gold that will naturally draw the eye when the card is revealed. - NOTE: The fact that this deck is patterned on an original Renaissance deck does mean that the minor arcana cards are all beautifully - but simply - rendered with just the number and the symbols of the four suits: Wands, Cups, Pentacles and Swords. This means they do not have the more imaginative images in the minor arcana for both the querent and the Tarot reader to key-in on when looking at a spread. It's my understanding this was the period way many early Tarot decks were rendered, however, it may prove challenging at first for someone used to more modern tarot decks. That being said, I don't believe it should deter someone from purchasing the Visconti Tarot. It may simply require more study to familiarize oneself with the meanings of the various numbers and suits of the minor arcana, without the help of the illustrations - just as any Tarot Reader would have had to do in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. And I believe the truly stunning look and feel of this deck will more than make up for that challenge, which in the end would likely improve one's overall understanding of the Tarot - whether they are a novice or a longtime practitioner. - In conclusion, I would like to thank those who specifically posted the correct ISBN numbers for this superior rendering of the Visconti deck as: ISBN-10: 0738700193. After looking at so many different decks and reading so many and varied reviews, it was very nice to have some specificity to be confident that I was ordering the deck I had read about.

まるで絵画を観ているようなタロットです。 基本とかけ離れているというレビューがありますがヴィスコンティタロットは今出回っているライダー版のタロットより古いものです。絵柄がかけ離れていて当然です。ライダー版と意味は変わらないので 持っていてもリーディングができないとかはないと思います。
