I saw a deck once and I haven't seen it since. I think it was on the small side and the cards were monochrome, brown and beige I think. The only card I remember was The Sun. Instead of the happy scene with the child on a horse, this one had one person hitting another one with a club. I think the rest of the cards were as un-cheerful as that one. I think it was an Italian deck. I know this isn't much to go on but I thought I would give it a try. I'm not sure I want to acquire this deck but I would like to know which one it is. Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion, but that's not it. I have the Lo Scarabeo Visconti and the Sun shows a young person floating over a landscape carrying the sun.

The art sure looks like the deck I am thinking of. This Sun card isn't the one I saw, but the style of the artwork is similar. I will look for other decks by this artist.

I am fairly sure it was the Sun card that had a guy with a club. I have the Minchiate Etruria deck. The spirit or attitude of the Sun card was similar to the Fool in the Minchiate. That Fool does look like he is trying to fight off those kids.
