Publisher Review:

Sandro Botticelli (born Alessandro di Mariano di Vanni Filipepi in 1445 and died in 1510) had the patronage of the (in)famous Lorenzo de‚Ä∞_ Medici, and the two works considered his masterpieces, “The Birth of Venus” and “Primavera” have become so popular that they have achieved clich_ status when trying to represent Renaissance art in Florence, Italy.√•√ä

Botticelli created numerous artworks, and in this deck, artist Atanassov has cleverly cut and pasted sections Botticelli‰_s works‰ÛÓsometimes duplicating images in the background (such as repeating the image of a sword to give the appropriate number of swords in a card) and sometimes changing the size (such as making the coins bigger to draw more attention to them)‰ÛÓand massaging them in a surprisingly effective way to produce a deck that is mostly similar in imagery to the Rider-Waite-Smith version. . . . read more.
