Hello everyone! I am nearly finished working on a deck inspired by older decks like the Marseille. It's called the Tarocchi di Marcelo Inciso. I wanted a dirty, rough engraved look for the cards and I hope I achieved it (see samples).
I have been trying to research the card backs of older decks (given that most would probably have no back design at all, or are, as they say in red carpet fashion parlance, backless haha), but they're a bit more difficult to google. The only "old decks" I have with me are Fournier's Marseille, Spanish, and El Gran Tarot Esoterico, which were the earliest decks I owned (and in a way, this is a bit of a tribute to them), and their backs kinda look like the Chosson or Payen and these seem too delicate for the rough look I want to achieve. I'd love to hear suggestions from you.
