History / Description

A beautifully illustrated Japanese tarot deck featuring the artwork of Yoshitaka Amano, with text by Emile Scheherazade.

Yoshitaka Amano is internationally celebrated for his distinctive fantasy style and is widely recognised for his long-standing artistic contributions to the FINAL FANTASY series through its iconic logo and image illustrations.

Published in 1997, this Japanese edition includes a complete 78-card tarot deck together with its original illustrated guidebook and presentation components, as shown in the photographs.

Each card showcases Amano's unmistakable artistic style, characterised by elegant linework, expressive figures and vivid colours. Inspired by the traditional tarot, the deck offers a unique interpretation that combines Japanese fantasy art with classic tarot symbolism.

The accompanying Japanese guidebook complements the deck and makes this set an attractive example of modern Japanese tarot publishing.
