The Jean Dodal Tarot was produced in Lyon, France, in 1701. Two versions are preserved in the National Library of France and the British Museum. We referenced both of these decks for our restoration.

This is the complete 78-card tarot deck and includes an information card and promotional card. The deck is in French, and the extra cards are in English.

Additional Information

Restoration Process

The restoration consisted of meticulously redrawing and recoloring the images. We also clarified many of the details to create consistency. Our goal was not to create an exact reproduction, but an elegant and refined deck that inspires the imagination of the modern reader.

Historical Information

An interesting mystery in the history of this deck is the two different spellings of Jean Dodal's name.  On the 2 of Cups, "Jean Dodal" is written in large text. However, on the 2 of Coins is "Faict a Lyon par Jean Dodali". This shows that the deck was produced in Lyon, France, by "Jean Dodali".  

Historians believe that Jean Dodal may have changed his name to a more Italian-sounding version in an effort to facilitate export. This theory is supported by the phrase "F.P. Le Trange" (fait pour l'etranger - made for export), which appears on the four Knights, the Page of Batons, Force, and The World.
