The deck was illustrated by Henry Steimer, a French artist responsible for drawing many comics illustrations for novels throughout the early 1900s. The author, known only as Madame de Maguelone, was an occultist who gave lectures on esoteric topics such as [[palmistry]] in Paris as early as 1900. She had previously published several other decks and small booklets about [[divination]]. None of her other decks or books have survived to the present day, and her work is largely unknown to modern audiences. | The deck was illustrated by Henry Steimer, a French artist responsible for drawing many comics and illustrations for novels throughout the early 1900s.
