I've had the Pictorial Key Tarot for a few weeks now and am enjoying my time spent with it.  It is a modernisation of the RWS Tarot, created  by Giordano Berti and Davide Corsi for Lo Scarabeo and is rich and colourful in appearance.

Most of the images have a wonderful 3D feel to them which draws you in,  however there are a small number of cards where the artwork looks flat in comparison, which is a pity.

Some of the facial expressions are a little awkward in appearance if you study them closely, but this is a minor thing.

Overall it is lovely, easy to read with and a shows a vibrant palette when laid out in a spread.  My absolute favourite image is the 8 of Cups however there are quite a lot of others that come very close.

I'd recommend this deck as a good one for beginners who may not enjoy the traditional RWS artwork.
