The Tarot Nouveau, French Tarot Nouveau or Bourgeois Tarot deck is a general style of tarot playing card deck.
Description
The Tarot Nouveau differs from other styles of tarot deck, such as the Tarot of Marseilles and Rider-Waite decks, in that the Tarot Nouveau is designed solely for playing the various tarot card games for which the 78-card tarot deck was originally devised, such as French Tarot.
In the French language, this deck is often called the tarot à jouer or playing tarot.
This usage is distinct from cartomancy and other divinatory purposes, for which the tarot is most commonly known outside Continental Europe.
This deck is most commonly found in France, Wallonia, Suisse romande, Québec, and Denmark.
