Sample text:

Most of these decks currently have only one or two cards. In total, there are currently over two hundred and seventy of these cards in total. They are divided by appearance, size and other details. As a result, they are conditionally divided into 15 groups.

The largest of these groups includes the three most famous and complete decks of Visconti-Sforza tarot.

The first is the Pierpont Morgan Bergamo Visconti-Sforza deck. It is also known as the Colleoni-Baglioni and Francesco Sforza deck. It lacks 4 cards out of 78: “The Devil”, “The Tower”, “Knight of Coins” and “Three of Swords”. Thirty-five cards from this deck are stored in Morgan Library & Museum in New York City. Another 26 cards are stored in the Accademia Carrara, and 13 cards are in the private collection of the Colleoni family in Bergamo.

These cards have a gold background for images, floral ornaments for the rest of the cards. Cards, unfortunately, are not numbered and not signed. But presumably, the deck was ordered to the artist on the day of the coronation of Francesco Sforza in 1450. Or, on the day of the decade of the wedding of Francesco and Bianca Maria Visconti in 1451.

The second deck is called the Cary-Yale Visconti-Sforza tarot, also known as the Visconti di Modrone set. It got its name from the collection of the Cary family, and is stored at Yale University Library in 1967. The deck dates from around 1466, it has 67 cards. Presumably, it could be a wedding gift from the third Duke of Milan, Filippo Maria Visconti, and Marie of Savoy.
