History of Cartomancy

History and Legend of a Prophetic Art

 
 
   

Cartomancy is one of the most recent mantic arts, something like a “young girl” if compared with the traditional divinatory techniques. Our exhibition describes the history of Cartomancy, from its origin (XVth century) up to the first codifications appearing at the end of XVIII century, and goes on with the manufacturing of popular packs and subsequent developments made by French and English occult schools, until the half of XIX century.
