FAQ - The Restoration of the Tarot

Who actually drew the Tarot de Marseille Restored by Jodorowsky and Camoin?

Philippe Camoin : "I am the heir to the tradition of the master cardmakers who go back to Nicolas Conver (founder in 1760 of the factory that became the Camoin House). So it was natural that I be the one to take up the light pen. The computer work was done with a considerable amount of enlargement (zoom). The eye of one of the figures could fill the entire screen. Alexandre was also able to influence the drawings through me : the two of us corrected the drawings side by side. Alexandre and I would decide together if the drawing was perfect. For the work to be finished, both of us had to be equally pleased or else it was back to the drawing board. Both of us are so enamored of the Tarot that it may be difficult for the reader to imagine how much time we took to correct details smaller than the head of a pin".
