The first tarot cards that are known of date back to the Renaissance between 1430 and 1460. These cards were originally painted for royalty by artists in Milan and Bologna. As you may be aware, the Renaissance was a major period for rebirth, reinvention, change and transformation. There was a sort of bustle to leave the dark Middle Ages and move forward into a more free and bright period in time. Many traditions that had been cast aside during the Middle Ages were revisited, revived and given a new life. You'll notice in the traditional decks that the motifs closely resemble those from the Renaissance times.
