Origins
It is in 1713 that the first Latin Tarot game was made by a master from Avignon, Jean-Pierre Payen. Marseilles quickly became the biggest producer of tarot latin games in Europe. In 1760, the interest for tarot reading developed thanks to the realization of a beautiful tarot game by master Nicolas Conver. The colours’ precision and the design chosen helped influence the Tarot of Marseilles’ popularity, and the major arcana’s symbolism became the go-to tool for the clairvoyants and the card divination enthusiasts.
The Latin Tarot has largely vulgarized the knowledge of tarot’s major arcana along with their interpretation, by giving them names and numbers - the only exception being number thirteen, the unnamed arcane.
