The Tarots of Casanova, illustrated by Luca Raimondo and published by Lo Scarabeo of Italy, shows actual places in Venice, often with characters in various erotic poses at masked balls or in boudoirs. Women are depicted fully or partially exposed, while the men are semi-dressed or covered (now, really, is that fair? But it does keep this deck from being classified as hard-core). The pale illustrations suggest gentility and an "Anaïs Nin" kind of sensuality. A lovely addition to Tarot and erotic collections, or to appreciate 18th century Venice in an unusual way. Collectors who want a more explicit deck may want to check out The Erotic Tarot, illustrated by Milo Manara, also produced by Lo Scarabeo.

The art work is nice and if you were going to be doing a reading for an adult party or someone whose questions were about sex these are perfect. Otherwise though they are very graphic and not good for normal readings.

The cards are beautiful, esthetic, well done artwork !
High quality cards ! Beautiful images from Venice of 18th Century...They become now a part of my collection.

This deck is "OK" but not worth the price. I think there are much better decks out there, for much less $. Although the images are lovely, I found it difficult to find the correlation between some of the images and their meaning.
