Publisher Review:
Sandro Botticelli (born Alessandro di Mariano di Vanni Filipepi
in 1445 and died in 1510) had the patronage of the (in)famous
Lorenzo de' Medici, and the two works considered his masterpieces,
"The Birth of Venus" and "Primavera" have become so popular that
they have achieved cliche status when trying to represent
Renaissance art in Florence, Italy. Botticelli created numerous
artworks, and in this deck, artist Atanassov has cleverly cut and
pasted sections Botticelli's works--sometimes duplicating images in
the background (such as repeating the image of a sword to give the
appropriate number of swords in a card) and sometimes changing the
size (such as making the coins bigger to draw more attention to
them)--and massaging them in a surprisingly effective way to
produce a deck that is mostly similar in imagery to the
Rider-Waite-Smith version. . . . read more.
