Visconti-Sforza. - Tarot Visconti-Sforza. - 2002

Tarot Visconti-Sforza – Complete Jeu Lo Scarabeo / Fabbri 2002 – Reproduction of the most famous Italian Renaissance tarot. Cards in good condition in original box.
Magnificent Visconti-Sforza tarot deck, published by Lo Scarabeo (Turin) for Éditions Fabbri France in 2002, based on the legendary Milanese cards of the 15th century commissioned by the Visconti and Sforza families, emblematic dynasties of the Italian Renaissance.
This tarot is considered one of the most important and prestigious historical decks ever produced, directly inspired by copies preserved in major collections and international museums. The illustrations faithfully reproduce the refined miniatures attributed to Lombard workshops of the Quattrocento, aristocratic figures, princely costumes, geometric decorative backgrounds, and the luminous palette typical of Italian Renaissance manuscript illumination.
The set includes the illustrated cards in an extremely elegant medieval style, with sober black backs that perfectly highlight the ancient iconography. The Major Arcana, including The Devil, are superbly reproduced with a highly decorative finish and immediately recognizable by collectors of historical tarots.
