PiatnikArt Pack Single Deck Playing Cards (Set of 52 Cards)

A old game with painting classics! Wonderful!

This is one of the most brilliant decks I have ever seen in my life. As a poker deck, the numbers and symbols are perfectly sized, large enough for middle-aged eyes like mine to see well enough while playing. Now, if you should want to use this deck for tarot-styled readings, I must tell you that it works equally great for that. In fact, it is incredible. If you are a card reader who also knows a fair amount about classical paintings and artists then you can see parallel symbolism within this deck--and often some extra humor. As an example, the 7 of wands in tarot usually denotes a conflict or struggle. In an ordinary deck of playing cards, the 7 of clubs represents the 7 of wands. As you can tell from the photo I've provided, the art chosen for this card is "The Painter's Daughters" by Gainsborough. The young gal in the painting is attempting to catch a butterfly. Now, is that a struggle or not?

Arrived quickly. Will use on Artist Trading Cards

My favourite playing cards, beautiful and excellent thickness to get a good shuffle

I love these cards! I am a high school art teacher who also happens to love a good card trick too. These are great I’m so many ways. The artwork is beautiful, it has all of the greatest pieces, and they are so useful in education. They work as flash cards, inspiration for artwork, or fun learning games. Of course, they are a perfect classic deck of cards as well. 10/10 would recommend!
