About Tarot Art
Tarot originated in the context of card games before developing later associations with divination and esoteric interpretation. Surviving decks and individual cards vary in design, numbering and subject, making the identification of a particular source important.
A modern tarot-inspired illustration should be distinguished from a reproduction of a historical card. Read the documented deck, maker and date where known. Meanings assigned to a card can also differ between systems and should not be presented as a single timeless interpretation.
