New Rider Waite
2011
Alexandria Mokuseioh
Japan
Art Medium:
Scans of original deck recoloured.
Description:
The original images of the Rider-Waite deck have been scanned and the existing colouring removed. This has then been recoloured with much more saturated colours, often using acidic oranges and yellows. Modelling has been added to some of the figures but not consistently. The numbers have been placed in the lower bar and each card is re-titled in an Art Deco typeface. Alexandria Mokuseioh is one of the best known of Japanese tarot designers, having issued at least ten decks. Supplied in a box with substantial book.
