This is one new, sealed deck of El Recuerdo Illuminados Playing Cards by Sviatoslav Pashchuk. This is his new series dedicated to Mexico's heroic struggle for independence. The deck incorporates unique symbolism of Mexican culture and history. Here's a list of all the decks in this series:· El Recuerdo - Revolucion· El Recuerdo - Muertos· El Recuerdo - Victoria· El Recuerdo - Muertos Iluminados The artist took the tradition and culture of Mexico, combining folklore and historical elements in a very successful way. With just a pencil and paper, Sviatoslav has taken a variety of references and filled every corner of his illustrations with symbols. After seven months working in a combination of traditional and modern aspects and applying digital techniques to the original sketches, the deck shows an extraordinary balance. He turned each card into a piece of art. The symbolism is quite deep and can be easily viewed since there is plenty of decoration. The artist has used detail typical from the old Mexican money and a combination of the green colors present in the modern banknotes. Golden elements from the Mayan culture (like the calendar) decorate the beautiful and intricate illustrations. Seven months of meticulous craftsmanship merged traditional artistry with cutting-edge digital innovation to create this remarkable deck. Every card reflects a masterful equilibrium between timeless design principles and contemporary techniques, resulting in a visually stunning collection that captivates collectors and enthusiasts alike. The deck was produced by Max and printed by National Playing Card Company in Ukraine. Discover intricate artistry in every face card, where historical weaponry, ancient Incan symbols, and iconic Mexican flora converge in stunning hand-illustrated detail. Each court card showcases the mystical Maya golden calendar at its center, framed by ornamental designs that tell a deeper story. The Victoria edition uniquely blends the Revolution and Muertos collections, creating a visual narrative that bridges two worlds and celebrates the rich tapestry of Mexican and pre-Columbian heritage.
