Title: Lovely erotic tarot features 18th century Venice
Product review: 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 "Anas 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.
