SynopsisIn this quietly powerful neoclassic deck, di Ferndinado Gumppenberg simplifies many of the cards without losing any of the symbolic intensity of the Tarot. The Magician brings to mind Napoleon, the Hermit appears to be observing two snakes fighting, Temperance deals with three water jugs instead of two, and the Star is entirely sans pitchers. Meanwhile, the poor figures in the Judgement card fight ferocious flames rather than peacefully arising from their graves. The Major Arcana cards are labeled in Italian in a delicate script and are numbered at the top. The Fool and Death are unnumbered. The Marseilles style pips are clean and elegant. Hand-drawn borders complement the delicate line drawings and coloring. This unique deck with its gentle lines is a perfect expression of the poetry and magic worked by diviners everywhere, weaving the past into the present as they seek the future., In this quietly powerful neoclassic deck, di Ferndinado Gumppenberg simplifies many of the cards without losing any of the symbolic intensity of the Tarot.
