Step back into 18th-century Munich with the Bavarian Wedding Tarot (Baierische Hochzeit). This deck is a stunning high-fidelity reproduction of the original 1765 masterpiece by Andreas Benedict Göbl. Widely considered the most beautiful of Göbl's works, this 78-card deck is a must-have for historians, tarot collectors, and art lovers alike.
A Story of Royal Tragedy
This deck was originally published to commemorate the ill-fated 1765 marriage of Emperor Joseph II and Maria Josefa of Bavaria. Forced by Empress Maria Theresa, the union was famously "disastrous."
"Maria Josefa, though warm and good-natured, was consistently ignored by the Emperor. Their marriage was never consummated, and she spent two humiliating years at court before succumbing to smallpox."
Artistry & Symbolism
The deck features a complete set of 22 Tarot Trumps that diverge from traditional imagery to depict a luxurious wedding procession:
The Wedding Loader: Leading the way on horseback.
The Royal Carriage: Carrying the hosts and the bridal couple.
Costumed Noblemen: Figures dressed as gypsies, huntsmen, and farmers.
The Banquet: Concluding the procession with a courtly feast.
