Productinformatie
Design and Artwork
The Jean Dodal Tarot, a meticulously restored classic deck, was originally created in 1701 Lyon, France. This historical deck includes 78 cards, featuring an informational card and a promotional card, primarily in French, with key information translated into English. The restoration, which amalgamated elements from original copies preserved in the National Library of France and the British Museum, has revived this culturally significant and artistically valuable deck for future generations.
Restoration Process
The restoration of the Jean Dodal Tarot involved redrawing and recoloring the images while clarifying many details for consistency. The objective was not to replicate the original exactly but to produce an elegant and refined deck that stirs the imagination of modern tarot enthusiasts.
Historical Information
A notable mystery of this deck is the variation in the spelling of Jean Dodal's name, found on the 2 of Cups ("Jean Dodal") and the 2 of Coins ("Jean Dodali"). Historians speculate this may have been a strategic name alteration to sound more Italian, aiding in export. This theory is reinforced by the phrase "F.P. Le Trange" (fait pour l'etranger - made for export) on several cards, suggesting a deliberate focus on international distribution.
