"When we opened this deck its sheer beauty caught us by surprise. We were delighted by every card--rich Renaissance colors placed against a gold foil background surrounded by a black border. The Visconti family ruled Milan and the surrounding area for over one hundred years from the middle of the fourteenth to the close of the fifteenth century. This deck, designed and hand-painted for the Visconti and Visconti-Sforza family, is the oldest existing deck in the world. That is what makes owning this beautiful reproduction such a treat. Look for Visconti family heraldic images in several of the cards."--Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero

Important artifacts of Renaissance high culture
I have little interest in Tarot per se, but I'm quite interested in the Italian Renaissance. If you believe that the Tarot has its origin in the secret knowledge of ancient Egypt, you have been misled by imaginative 18th century romantics. The Visconti-Sforza Tarocchi cards are the oldest "Tarot" cards in existence, but they were never actually intended for divination purposes. Their purpose was primarily as allegorical emblems (a very popular theme in those days), and as expensive hand-painted high art they were a way for wealthy families to show off their taste for exquisite things. If they were "used" at all, it was for ordinary card games. It was only in the 18th century that occultists began to ascribe imaginary origins and esoteric doctrines to them. But they are important artifacts of Renaissance high culture, and if you can appreciate and enjoy them for that (as I do), then this offering from this vendor is a great value. Read full review
