Blanca Curi Cartas de Tarot
2007
M.E.L.
Argentina
Art Medium:
Pen and watercolour.
Description:
There is no documentation supplied with the deck but 'Blanca Curi' is Spanish for 'of the white witch'. Apparently these cards were issued by a well known astrologer in Argentina. The artwork is signed M.E.L. and in an Alphonse Mucha style. The facial expressions are not very well achieved and the modelling of the forms is not of the best, but it has some nice touches and is a fine clean design of pen line with watercolour (perhaps augmented with some graphics colour, added later once the artwork had been scanned in). Cards have main titles in Spanish, but additional titles in English and French. Minors are in playing card style.
