Tarot Bizzarro — Tarocco Bizzarro di F. Bruna
An unusual and witty deck created by cartoonist Franco Bruna, it turns the classic tarot into an ironic gallery of images. It is a satirical interpretation of the traditional tarot structure, filled with grotesque faces, scenes from everyday life and a light mockery of archetypes. The deck retains the form and order of the classic Piedmont Tarot, but each arcana here winks - with humor, caricature and good-natured irony.
