I have just received my first Visconti deck, the "Visconti Tarot" ~ restored Visconti-Sforza in mini from Lo Scarabeo.
I understand the difference between these two is just that the Visconti Tarot is a restored version of the Visconti-Sforza and nothing more, am I right? I also understand the full size version of the Visconti Tarot has gold foil unlike the mini and the Viscont-Sforza, is that correct?
I have absolutely no experience with these decks so I must admit I am rather clueless as to the difference between decks other than the above.
What is the difference between the Cary-yale Visconti and the Visconti-Sforza?
Why are they all named "Visconti"? I can see the images of the Cary-Yale are different to the Visconti-Sforza.
I have also heard mention of other reproductions but am unsure as to what the names were now.
Please enlighten me as to the varying differences between all the Visconti decks.
Thankyou in advance.
ETA ~ I have been checking my mini Visconti Tarot against scans of the full size gold Visconti Tarot and have found some slight differences in the painting.
Is the mini different again from the full size, apart from the gold that is?
I'm officially confused.
