An interesting deck
Citrine
Sorry, I don't recognize that one.

Are these paintings or an actual deck ?

It is an hand made deck and a book. I don't know if there is more than one deck. The book is printed (500 ex) in June 1994. The deck come in a box made in wood and painted in green... the deck also have a green atmosphere. What I think ? Perhaps it is done with cards cut of the book. These cards are glued on thick paper, with a touch of hand painted gold. The backs are green and gold. The cards are hand laminated. I am not able to find who is the creator of this deck... Durieux is a very common name in France... and 1994 is 12 years ago... Too bad.

Do you have a copy or know someone with a copy ?
Where did you get the scans from ?
It would be nice to get more scans.

It looks oddly familiar, but I can't quite place it; maybe I saw one like it in the card museum in Issy....
Could you scan death, please ? (that would be the card I would most likely recognise !)

I have the book and the deck... Some pics from the book : without gold the scans are better. I love this "naive" (have you seen how she draw the clouds) artwork and my first thinking was : I want to publish this!
but where is the creator?
I have not seen it in the Issy museum (Issy is more intellectual) I have seen some historical decks (not more and with some errors) and the Frollet and a wonderfull deck about Gerard de Nerval (or I have forgotten - Alzheimer perhaps).

I was lucky - when I last went to Issy there was a special exhibit of art decks from the 20th century. 
LOVELY death - thanks.
Now I will look through what I have and all my books and............

Palestrina,
Do the cards have the titles printed on them
or are these only in the printed book illustrations ?
Can you show us an examples of a card and its corresponding illustration in the book ?
