I have been a tarot practitioner for years so perhaps this is why no information feels particularly new to me. I expected an in-depth analysis of the symbology in each tarot card, and why the artists chose a particular symbol to represent one of the archetypes. This was instead more of an art book. I consider my expectations here to have been appropriate because of the description of this as a book on the history of tarot, and based on the other Taschen books I've read in the Esoterica collection which I found to be great in comparison to this.

Nonetheless, it is quite a good-looking book and the art included in it is beautiful, but for experienced tarot readers looking for a deep dive in tarot symbology, I wouldn't recommend it.
(Will not be counting this book on my 2025 Reading Challenge as I only read about half)
