Mini-review: Il Meneghello Visconti di Modrone Book

You'll recall that a few weeks ago I purchased & received a back-up copy of Maestro Osvaldo's ineffably beautiful Visconti di Modrone tarot.

The deck comes with an English book, which was briefly out of stock. I got a question specifically on the book itself. This this brief look! 

Of course Christina has a PhD in art history, and so the slender volume is packed with great scholarly & historically correct information. She takes care to note where the classic iconography is or isn't & mostly devotes a good page to each trump. 

The reference images & bibliography are to the point. If I were to stretch to find a constructive comment, it would be that I wish Christina had had more space to explore the suits in depth. 

But books, as all authors know, are always constrained by space & cost limitations... the beautiful full-page color images are worth the trade off. 

The deck & book are Must Haves! Absolutely a complete work of art.
