The record
The Museo Dei Tarocchi Hermatena presents several decks each year some collaborative projects, some from individuals. LiteraTarot Europa is a collaboration from European artists (mainly Italian) that was published in the spring of 2009. Twenty-two artists chose books from literature as the theme for their individual cards. This is a Majors only, limited edition deck (300 copies), done on good quality cardstock. It is presented in a book-like wrapper, with covering folded up from both ends so that the cards do not fall out. The wrapper is held together with ribbons secured to the front and back covers. The artists, and the literary works that they based their cards on, are as follows: * Note: The cover art was done by Jessica Angiulli and Lucio Mondini. 0 Matto (Fool): Maria Grazia Martina Rosso Malpelo by Giovanni Verga I Bagatto (Magician): Tiziana Bertacci Limmortale di Borges (The Immortal, by Luis Borges) II Papessa (High Priestess): Emma Campo Teodora di Paolo Cesaretti (Teodora the Rise of an Empress, by Paul Cesaretti) III Imperatrice (Empress): Morena Poltronieri Diario di Etty Illesum (Diary of Etty Illesum, a writer from the Netherlands who died i
