The Sola Busca Tarot is a redrawing of the oldest existing tarot deck, printed in the late fifteenth century in Italy. The deck shows biblical, Roman and mythological imagery, and it was the first deck to show full scenes on the minor arcana cards. Encyclopedia of Tarot, vol. III, pp. 30, 31, 32

Technically, the Lo Scarabeo edition is very well made. It is printed on sturdy card stock and the cards are vividly reproduced. The deck is easy to shuffle and work with. Each card is bordered in black and identified in English, French, Italian, German and Spanish. Although the cards are physically easy to work with, some might initially find the symbolism to be challenging. However, I feel anyone who gives the deck an opportunity to open up to them will be rewarded with a potent addition to their Tarot collection.
