Theme: Nibelungen saga meets Gustav Klimt's Art Nouveau

Medium: digital

A 78-card tarot deck that merges the Nibelungen saga with the elegant, golden aesthetics of Art Nouveau, drawing inspiration from Gustav Klimt.

About This Deck

The Nibelungen Tarot is a 78-card deck designed to blend the epic narrative of the Nibelungen saga with the distinctive visual style of Art Nouveau, particularly influenced by Gustav Klimt's golden phase. This combination suggests a deck rich in mythological storytelling and ornate, decorative artistry.

The deck aims to offer a unique interpretation of the tarot system, where the archetypal figures and events of the Nibelungenlied — a medieval Germanic heroic legend — are recontextualized within the symbolic framework of the Major and Minor Arcana. This approach promises a reading experience that is both deeply rooted in myth and visually luxurious, appealing to those who appreciate historical narratives and sophisticated art.

While specific card details are not provided, the thematic fusion implies a deck that will likely feature heroic figures, mythical creatures, and dramatic scenes rendered with the flowing lines, organic forms, and rich, often metallic, color palettes characteristic of Art Nouveau. The 78-card structure confirms it as a complete tarot system, suitable for comprehensive readings.
