Tarot de Marseille of the New Incarnation

The Tarot de Marseille of the New Incarnation is a 78-card deck created by Swiss illustrator Eugene Vinitski, designed to offer a unique interpretation of the classic Tarot de Marseille (TdM) system. What sets this deck apart is its commitment to fully illustrating the Minor Arcana, a departure from the pip-card style often found in traditional TdM decks, while still maintaining the core symbolism and structure of the Marseille tradition. This approach aims to make the deck more accessible and intuitive for readers accustomed to more pictorial tarot systems, without sacrificing the historical integrity of the TdM.

The deck includes a full 78 cards, encompassing both the Major and Minor Arcana, and is presented in a luxury box. Each deck comes with a companion book, which likely provides insights into Vinitski's unique interpretations and how the fully illustrated minors integrate with the TdM system. The campaign successfully raised $23,601 from 273 backers, indicating a strong interest in this modernized yet traditional approach to the Tarot de Marseille.

Eugene Vinitski, a professional illustrator and artist, brings his extensive experience in painting and illustration to this project. His fascination with the "mystery world and endless possibilities of Tarot" drives his creation of decks that blend artistic vision with practical application. This deck represents his effort to bridge the gap between historical tarot systems and contemporary reading preferences, making the rich symbolism of the Tarot de Marseille more visually engaging and easier to interpret for a wider audience.

This deck is ideal for Tarot de Marseille enthusiasts who appreciate traditional symbolism but desire more visually descriptive Minor Arcana. It also appeals to experienced tarot readers looking to explore the TdM system with a deck that offers a bridge from Rider-Waite-Smith-style imagery. Collectors interested in unique interpretations of classic decks and those who value the work of professional illustrators in the tarot space will find this deck compelling.
