"The Art Nouveau movement of the late nineteenth century developed as an attempt to free artists and designers from the clichéd historicism that dominated much of the art at the time. Art Nouveau was characterized by long, sinuous, undulating lines that often employed leaf-shaped forms, flower buds, plant stems, blooms, insect wings, vines, and other graceful and organic natural shapes.

The Art Nouveau Tarot provides tarot enthusiasts with an aesthetically pleasing deck full of movement and majesty."
