[edit] Description
This 'Photo-Poetic' vision of the 22 Trumps depicts two fellow artists who travel through Tuscany as railway men while sharing key experiences of the human condition, as reflected in these cards. Often with subtle humor and insight, the two friends journey to 22 Italian train station locations while wearing their railway uniforms (one with red cap, the other with blue). These two likeable characters are present on all the cards and only on the Fool card, 'O - Il Matio' is there the addition of the Fool, shown walking down the path wearing a colorful knapsack and mismatched attire while clumsily carrying a cat. The Fool is actually played by the artist, Giovanni Pelosini, who wrote the accompanying LWB. Speaking of which, the rather thick booklet that offers both poems and interpretations for each station of life represented in the cards, is unfortunately only written in Italian. A whimsical vision of the Fool’s Journey is played out in this deck of scenic photographs. Details: Numbered & titled (in Italian, including additional prose), Backs: reversible, Card size: (approximately) 2.7 x 4.7 inches, 6.8 x 12 cm. This is a numbered, limited edition deck of 500, signed by both artists.
