Nicolette asked in Arts & HumanitiesHistory · 1 decade ago

What is the origine of the historic costumes of the people represented on "Ancient Tarot de Marseilles" please?

Update:

Tarothermit is very good. Before Marseilles, the unknown origin was, I think, printed in Epinal France, with the Guttenberg press. Costumes could be German or French. Still looking.

    The Ancient Tarot of Marseilles is a reproduction of the historic Tarot de Marseilles created in 1760 by Nicholas Conver.

    The images on this deck are from Medieval Europe, with the figures' clothing reflecting the fashion of this era.
