Golden Tarot (El embalaje puede variar) - Edición en Inglés

Product Information

Still, for anyone who is familiar with the TdM or who wants to learn, these pip cards are richly illustrated and read quite well. What the images cannot do justice to, however, is the general feel and quality of the finished product. In any case, the CEO of the world’s largest Tarot deck distributor, and publisher of the three volume (soon to be four) Encyclopedia of Tarot made a contractual offer. While the deck pays tribute to the artwork of the Middle-Ages and early Renaissance, it celebrates the exploration of tarot and its artistic heritage. If you're interested about reading more information on every tarot card in the deck, we have created a blog guide that explains the card as well as it's meaning both in upright or reversed position.

Seller has stated it will dispatch the item within 1 working day upon receipt of cleared payment - opens in a new window or tab . Each of the Major Arcana and the Court Cards is given a full page of description, with a color reprint of the card and both upright and reversed meanings. With this full deck of 78 cards and a full-colour, step-by-step guide, you will be reading cards in just a few hours. It looks like a slick and polished set; the gold matte box matches the book with matches the backs of the cards. The Golden Tarot is a sumptuous collage Tarot deck, skillfully blending Medieval and Renaissance artwork into whole Tarot scenes.In structure it owes the most to the Visconti: Justice is placed at VIII and Strength at XI, and the numbered minor arcana cards are pips, rather than the illustrated scenes most often attributed to the Rider-Waite. The Medieval and Renaissance theme is something that is "comforting" to me - something that I seem to be at home with. Turning off the personalised advertising setting won’t stop you from seeing Etsy ads, but it may make the ads you see less relevant or more repetitive.

It might actually become one of my go-to reading decks for other people, because the imagery is clear, accessible, and super traditional without the artwork being boring. I was most disappointed by the lack of scenes of the minor arcana cards, and the fact that they are less decorated than even those in the Visconti Tarot. Inspired by the beauty and mystery of the earliest tarot, the Visconti-Sforza, and the world-renowned imagery of the Rider Waite deck, The Golden Tarot makes the perfect gift for the dedicated tarot reader or those new to this ancient art. I don’t like the size of it though, way too big, but luckily I know how to shuffle more than one way! They are unfortunately also very repetitive, without the ornate curlicues and flowers often on the historical decks; the 2 – 10 cards show exactly the same suit emblems on the same background, simply duplicated and rearranged.The images are all digitally manipulated to make the source artworks more closely resemble the Rider-Waite tradition (e. Death, for example, is depicted in image quite unlike either the skeletal reaper or the Horseman; the Hanged Man maintains, as per the Marseilles, the right leg folded; the Wheel of Fortune is a charming rendition which combines traditional imagery with traditional representations of age; the Hermit is on no mountain - or none that is obvious; and, wonderfully, the Magician has his left hand raised, and right lowered, as is more traditional.
