New TdM II, from Rio IIIIto, Tarot de Marsella Robledo

This deck cames from PAST !!?

Hello all,

I received this new version deck one week ago but was too busy for having time to give here my personal opinion on it:
Let's go now.

I had the very first edition of it and so compared them:
On Major XXI Hair is better designed.
Major VIII Justice: Crown changed also (we see Madenié influence I think)
XVII Etoile: Eyes have also a Madenié style look
XX Monde: Eyes are less open. See Madenié too.
III Imperatrice: Eyes are not any more green (As before like Camoin/Jodo)
XII Pendu: Trees are less "neon colour". I prefer this new version.
On this card face of hanged man is less "pinky" and more flesh like. I also prefer.

The all deck look older and more "used" than first version.
Pablo added years to this new version by playing with shades, variations on colours and other ways.

Backs design is different (Fleurs de Lys design like Chosson deck for exemplar).
But on backs oldness of deck was created by may be a little too much brown zones hum...

All in one this deck (very handy by his size) seems to comes from a cellar of an old Noble Mansion or from an old inn where gamers played quite well with him, betting for "who will pay the next glass" or any money game.


To resume my feeling I would say that this personal interpretation is very nice and please me a lot with his historical look and background.

I see the evolution of Pablo work and his personal choices influenced by his growing in depth knowledge of was are and what was old historical Tarot of Marseilles pattern decks.

May be a courageous conquistador had a similar tarot deck in his armour pocket when he arrived in Nuevo Mondo ?......

Hello Yves,

thank you very much for your review,

Since February last year, when I received the Madenié fell in love with the strokes
of hair of LIMPERATRISE, from there I began to understand in a more profound way and the richness of the strokes.

There are cards in which the characters by having a smaller size makes them harder much detail in the engravings.

Madenié is a strong influence in this version, without being a Madenié.

without great pretensions, or stories of conquerors or decks in an antique house in the Nuevo Mondo, hahaha

this deck offers a walk where you will find hints of different decks in one deck, familiar faces for connoisseurs, without departing at all the Marseilles pattern decks, and without inconsistencies of styles, much material to discover, to learn, to work, and especially a tool
useful and faithful for the readings.

sorry, I correct relevant, is not that it is a deck without great pretensions, but the pretensions that make this deck are sincere.

As I can with my genius, in this new occasion has a new variation, in the backard in the lower left corner the stain of "dirt" is more pronounced, as if finger thumb had been dragged on more occasions, thus giving the sense of the orientation of the card.

Hi ladybird

the photo is not very good, but I think it is enough to know the dirt smudge

Thanks for posting the picture, Pablo. Did you make any changes to the art from the 3rd edition or is the 3rd edition work the same but with different backs?
