Russian Tarot of St. Petersburg

Famous Russian miniaturist Yury Shakov created the detailed images of this now-classic deck to exact size. Shakov combines elements of traditional Russian culture, costume, archetecture, fairy tales, and more to present an interestingly ethnic twist on the tarot archetypes. The images are surrounded by flowery, ornate borders. The illustrations for this deck were Shakov's last commissioned project, before his death in 1989.
