Message me if you have any questions.** Tarot of the Pirates by Bepi Vigna. Artwork by Michele Benevento. 2007. Lo Scarabeo. Made in Italy. RARE/OOP The various epochs of piracy and plundering have always gone hand in hand with the constant evolution of society. In fact, piracy was born and grew alongside the somewhat more honorable activities of river and maritime trade, making it one of the oldest professions of all time. But in the collective imagination, piracy is connected above all to an epoch of grand sailing ships that set out for the open seas between the end of the XVI and beginning of the XVIII centuries, a period when Spain had become the sovereign of rich colonies in the Caribbean and Central and South America...... Thanks to literature and cinema, pirates have become a symbol of courage and audacity, the emblem of freedom and adventure. This romantic and legendary idea, rather than their true history, rich in cruelty and notoriety, was the inspiration for the Pirate Tarot Cards. The cards of the Major Arcana illustrate the history of the Pirates of the Caribbean, a legendary context where adventure meets magic. The iconography on pirates then became representative of a world without impositions, dominated by authentic values where man established a balanced relationship with the forces of nature. The suits of nature Minor Arcana are the barrel of rum, the oars, the doubloons, and the cutlass. This rare and colorful deck consists of 78 beautifully illustrated cards with text in English, Italian, Spanish, French, Dutch & German. It also comes with a booklet in English, Italian, Spanish, French & German. Open box. ALL is in pristine condition. ISBN 10: 0738712906 ISBN 13: 9780738712901
