These come readily to mind:
Connolly--it takes chutzpah to rework a famous painting of Jesus & use it for the #15 card. I'm not even a Christian, & I was offended. The whole deck is reworked famous paintings, but the source material is not acknowleged. Also, the makers didn't want to put any "bad" cards in the deck, so they changed the meanings of some of the cards.
The Golden Tarot of Klimt--the deck is well done, but a little Klimt goes a long, long way. I didn't like the source material enough to keep it.
Osho Zen--it didn't seem to have much to do with tarot.
Tarot of Prague--too bright.
Herbal Tarot--I don't know herbs well enough to relate them to tarot. This requires more study, so I still have this deck. I would have preferred that the makers come up with their own imagery, rather than use the RWS with drawings of plants added onto it.
Legend: The Arthurian Tarot--the borders are too big, making the images too small. If it had been printed in a larger size, it would have been easier to see the paintings.
